I enjoy T. Kingfisher a lot. Her books always have some level of darkness but also a dash of humor, this is no exception. 

I don’t know the fairytale this is based on, so I can’t speak to how well that is done or not. I loved the fact the story was based around the daughter so we got the dynamic of her being naive and navigating relationships with her mom and the new adults she finds herself around. 

The women she meets and finds kinship with are so fun and have so much personality. 

This is a bit eerie, but not scary by any means, however the mental image of the horse in the end will likely haunt me forever.
