A very beautifully written collection of fairy tales. All inspired by childhood stories, yet new and refreshing. Somehow this book makes the flushed out world of the grishaverse even more real and enchanting. Reading it felt as though I was stepping foot into Alina's childhood, listing to cautionary tales.
Moderate: Animal death, Body horror, Child death, Incest, and Sexual assault
