3 Fae, one girl. Perfect ratio. ✨️
But in all seriousness, this book was a great remix of a very classic holiday tale that has been told time and time again, now given a breath of new life by Rebecca. The incorporation of the Wild Hunt to give it that Fae spin and meld it with her existing world seamlessly. The characters, as always, are deep and loveable and, most importantly, so original. Highly recommend this book. A perfect holiday read! And it can be read as a standalone if you haven't read the other previous books abd series scare you...but I HIGHLY recommend you do read the others because they ROCK!
