Juniper & Thorn by Ava Reid

5.0

Get your cannibalism, pedophilia, witches, folk tales, monsters, and ballet dancers here!

Love folk tale retellings that really go into the horror and bizarreness of the original. I didn't know the Juniper Tree before, but I read a summary, and I think the main parts definitely stayed in this book. I love how some things are only implied in the beginning as Marlinchen prefers to ignore them too, then she just can't hide from the truth anymore.
