Kerstin Hall recommends
thumb
The Dark We Know (2024)
Wen-yi Lee
"The Dark We Know is a lyrical mediation on loss and survival, on holding on and letting go, and on growing up in a community that only ever wanted you to be small. Filled with moments of striking beauty, Wen-yi Lee's debut establishes her as a force to be reckoned with."
thumb
A Spindle Splintered (2021)
(Fractured Fables, book 1)
Alix E Harrow
"A Spindle Splintered is a princess story gone rogue. At times sweet and funny, at others bitingly acerbic, this whirlwind tour of fairyland jabs at the old happily-ever-afters -- and asks whether we might want more than a prince and a palace."
thumb
Sun-Daughters, Sea-Daughters (2021)
Aimee Ogden
"Familiar and fresh, intimate and expansive -- a fairy tale flung into the future."
