I have many feelings on this story. 

First off I just need to say, I despised Leonora. I understand that she was supposed to be a disliked character, but Asher sucking up to this Grandma literally knowing she is a bad person with bad intentions, bothered me so much. Same with the Heloise, but that’s a whole different story.

This book had soooo much potential with the amazing story and plotline. One thing about this ‘dark fairytale’ telling, is that it’s very unique, so I was still able to overall enjoy it.

The problem is the characters are all so annoying and make dumb decisions. Only characters that didn’t piss me off were the kids and Eli.

I could rant on and on, but for the most part I expected way more from this book. It was still a fair read though.

Very disturbing and pretty dark, check content warnings.
