"A collection of thirteen dark, feminist retellings of traditional fairytales from one of Ireland's leading writers for young people. In the tradition of Angela Carter, stories such as Cinderella and Rumpelstiltskin are given a witchy makeover, not for the faint-hearted. Intricately illustrated with black and white line drawings, in the style of Aubrey Beardsley, by a new Irish illustrator." -- Provided by publisher.

I’m so sad that I didn’t love this as much as I’d hoped I would. There were a few stories I liked above the others, The Tender Weight being my stand out favourite but overall, this collection wasn’t for me unfortunately.
