Fable is a story of a woman finding her way against unlikely odds. Abandoned on an island forced to survive against others who would cut her throat sooner than help her, Fable finds a way to get by, and eventually find her way.

After having this book on my TBR for a while and on my bookshelf for several months, I finally picked it up on a whim. Holy moly. What an adventure this story weaves. Every time Fable gets her footing, it seems to be cut out from under her. And yet, she perseveres. 

Adrienne Young has a lyrical writing style that takes the reader on a fantastical journey. Every book I’ve read of here, I finish with a great sigh and am reminded how much I love her work.
