Switching points of view can be risky, but here it worked. Loved how things concluded.

Picked this up not knowing much about it. Liked how the tale spun out and you learned more and more about the monster. On a bit of a fantasy reading kick recently and this fit the bill. Really enjoyed it.

Wasn‘t sure how things would go after the first book, but Ms Broadbent pulled it off. 😊

Book 4 FINALLY came in at the library after months of being on hold. Yay! That being said, I kind of hope this is Kawaguchi's last installment in this series. As much as I liked books one and two, book three and now four have fallen somewhat flat for me. The concepts behind the stories are still well and good, but something about the writing and the timing just seems off to me. ⭐⭐⭐ + 1/2 ⭐

Deblovestoread I‘m struggling with book three…wasn‘t sure if it‘s the book or my slump but this makes me think it‘s the book. 🤷🏻‍♀️ 1mo
monkeygirlsmama @Deblovestoread I've seen so many 5 star reviews for book 3, but it definitely was a struggle for me. I liked it, for sure; however, it wasn't anywhere as good as the first two. Something felt different about the quality or style. I couldn't quite put my finger on it. Definitely not just you though. 1mo

Not sure why this has such a low rating on here! This was funny, light but nuanced, and overall a clever subversion of familiar tropes (& stereotypes/double binds familiar to most women with time and experience). I think it pairs well with the traditional fairytales mentioned (Cinderella, Snow White, Rapunzel) to offer grounding and an alternate perspective. ⚖️🤷🏻‍♀️💅🏻✨💖

“Faraway” Collection on Amazon complete - this was my fave.
