To Kill a Kingdom

Fairytale retellings have always been a soft spot of mine but dark retellings? And I'm already swooning. This book was such a fantastic retelling it was a new take on witches and the idea of good and evil and redemption. There was no insta-love which I had been prepared for instead the love story went through the proper steps to get where it ended. There were a few plot holes like the fact that Lira had until the winter solstice to take the princes heart it was mentioned once and then never again, as if the author just needed a reason to turn lira human. And he ending was rushed and while the Lois ends were tied up nicely it lacked he umpf I really wanted out of a story like this. All in all a great read!
