"As the only Second Daughter born in centuries, Red has one purpose-to be sacrificed to the Wolf in the Wood in the hope he'll return the world's captured gods. Red is almost relieved to go. Plagued by a dangerous power she can't control, at least she knows that in the Wilderwood, she can't hurt those she loves. Again. But the legends lie. The Wolf is a man, not a monster. Her magic is a calling, not a curse. And if she doesn't learn how to use it, the monsters the gods have become will swallow the Wilderwood-and her world-whole"--

It's not the fairy tale you might expect, but it's really good.
I'd have to rate this 4.5⭐.
Maybe it was what my brain was asking me for, or maybe that I got too invested in the romance to care for anything else. But, while I loved the whole dynamic between the Valleydan Interludes and the Wilderwood POVs, but... every time a Valleydan Interlude came I felt like I was getting deprived from getting more Eammon and Red content, #sorrynotsorry.
It got so bad that at some point, eveytime it happend i was like 'Neve, I don't care' 😭. And then again, obviously those chapters where there for a reason, and after the 6th or 7th one I started to get the hints that maybe I should be paying more attention to those interludes 😭😂.
Anyhow, at the end of the day, did I wish maybe the interludes had opened up to other characters like Arick and Raffe? Yeah.
Apart from that, what I loved the most about the book was the character development of Eammon and I'd love to know more about his past in a precuel or something (pretty, please Hannah?🥺)
But yeah, I really enjoyed the book and if you're looking for a rollercoaster of emotions, this is the one!
ps: so much shaming Neve's interludes but now I am super excited for her adventure on book 2 too 👀.
