Then they took the last step together, and when she kissed her, her mouth as warm as summer, the taste of her sweet and clear, she knew, at last, that she was home.

In the wake of her father's death, Ash is left at the mercy of her cruel stepmother. Consumed with grief, her only joy comes by the light of the dying hearth fire, re-reading the fairy tales her mother once told her. In her dreams, someday the fairies will steal her away, as they are said to do.

Aisling‘s mother died at midsummer. She had fallen sick so suddenly that some of the villagers wondered if fairies had come and taken her, for she was still young and beautiful.

A Cinderella retelling that‘s sharp and beautiful; an exploration of grief & how it drives us; a search for happiness in a complicated world. Aisling is everything you want in a heroine — smart, brave and willing to sacrifice for what she wants, but more for what she needs. The romance between her and Kaisa is lovely and sweet. There‘s a richness of folklore running through the narrative that gives the story so much depth. All of the stars!

Honestly, this one was between a so-so and a pick. I think I just mentally hyped it up to much and it didn‘t live up to my expectations. The story felt fast paced at times and I didn‘t always know what was going on. 3.5⭐️. I thought this bookmark was ironic for the Cinderella retelling this book was.

Very interesting take on a Cinderella retelling. I enjoyed this but felt it was missing the steam factor.

Okay so this book was okay. My issue with it is that I felt when they through in a same sex relationship it was an organic thing. Like it was to check a box. It was completely left field to me. I have no problem with it being in there and by the end of the book I was rooting for them but I feel like it was a split decision to check a box.

A universe where all sexual identities are normalized. A retelling of Cinderella. Magical realism. That‘s why this book gets a pick from me. My only complaint is that I wish the relationship with Sidhean was more fleshed out. There was no push-pull between the three main characters, so that aspect of the story felt like a non-issue when it should have been more important or intriguing, I guess. Still, bravo for the stellar representation!

Holy heck so good. The beautiful weaving in of Irish mythology, the fairy tale retelling, it was beautiful and magical. I especially appreciated that queer relationships were *normalised* instead of agonised over or socially despised/ignored. 10/10

This was supposed to be my #fairytaleretelling for #booked2019, but I got 20 pages in and couldn't get past the terrible writing. Which is sad because I wanted to love this story. Guess I'll move on to my backup; The Wrath & The Dawn.

MidnightBookGirl Yeah, this one was a bit of a slow read. 6y
Susannah Oh, bummer. I‘ve heard such good things about this book. (edited) 6y

“With her heart hammering in her throat, Ash asked, ‘Will you do me the honor of dancing with me?‘ She looked up at Kaisa, and the huntress‘ look of bewilderment was changing, slowly, to a small, tentative smile. It steadied Ash, and she extended her hand across the distance. Kaisa came down the steps, took her hand, and said, ‘Yes.”

Wonderful retelling of Cinderella!
