Foul Is Fair

Wellll...that was a trip. 3.5.

2.5 stars
Definitely, the most unique book I've read this year. A dark feminist retelling of Macbeth and I loved the concept.
Sadly, the writing style wasn't for me. It constantly pulled me out of the story and it affected my enjoyment.

3.5 ⭐️This review can also be found on my blog.disclaimer: I received an advanced copy of this book from NetGalley and the publisher in exchange for review consideration. All of the opinions presented below are my own.She looks at the bruises on my neck and the scratches across my face, but she doesn't say anything.So I point at my hair, and I say, This color. Know what it's called?She shakes her head: No.I say, REVENGE.She says, Good girl. Kill him.This is the revenge story I've been dreaming about for ages and it was great. Apparently a Macbeth retelling (I am wholly unfamiliar with Macbeth), this was bloody as hell and pulled no punches. While ultimately an enjoyable read, both Jade and her coven were so cold and heartless that nothing about this felt realistic. Occasionally it felt a little repetitive and there were points where I just wanted to see where things would go. So while I would recommend this and am glad I read it, I'd also say it's not necessarily a perfect read.Blog Twitter Instagram Facebook
