Review:
Myth: 4/5
The story was a little darker than I originally anticipated, but it fit perfectly into my fall reads. A haunted manor, secret monsters, and tricky fae. Winifred was so competent and so straightforward. I adored her as a heroine. As a character, she dealt with past sexual trauma, and the way her character interacts with men who hold power over her was very well done.
Magic: 4/5
A curse, a twisted layer to the gothic manor, faeries, and folk history, this book has a little of everything seamlessly woven together.
Overall: 4/5
A very Victorian and gothic faerie tale. It’s a quick read, but I wouldn’t call it a light read. This was my first Olivia Atwater book and I’ll definitely go back and checkout Half a Soul after this.
