The beginning of this fantasy story was really intriguing and promising. The book tells the story of Moira Jean, a young girl who grows up in a small village after the first World War and during the Spanish Flu. Concerning this, I really liked how the author included these real historical events into the plot. One day, Moira Jean and her friends go out into the woods to dance and celebrate. However, something seems strange and the next day, Moira Jean wakes up to find her friends missing. Turns out, they were kidnapped by Fae. Moira Jean meets up with the Fae Lord and starts to make bargains in order to get her friends back. I enjoyed the bargain part of the book a lot and I liked how the faes were portrayed as very mysterious, magical and dark. I think the author did a really good job at describing the fae in way that created a thrilling and chilling atmosphere. I also liked our main protagonist and I extremely enjoyed how she argued and bantered with the Fae Lord. She is definitely very stubborn but also confident and I liked that she seemed very strong and determined. What I didn’t like as much was actually the pacing. I liked the plot and I liked that while reading, I learned more about different fae, but I felt like there was some suspense missing. Therefore, the ending also seemed a bit rushed. Conclusion A very magical and mysterious fantasy story with intriguing faes, strong characters and a very interesting setting. There could have been more action, but overall, I really enjoyed reading the book and can recommend it. I give it 4/5 stars.
