The world of Fae

I rarely find a bood about the Fae that is believable AND magical enough to capture the atmosphere of an ancient wood, the Fae in it, and their place in the world. LOVED this

Wow

Excellent mysterious, magical book. I read so much that I'm rarely surprised or delighted. This one hit just right.

Intriguing

I love that the chapters switch from granddaughter's and grandmother's perspectives; that nothing is handed to you and you have to become enveloped in the story to understand the context. It is fantastical and tragic; beautifully written.
