The Sisters Grimm by Menna van Praag
5.0

So this is definitely not a book for everyone (though I do not agree with 3.5 ratings even remotely). I loved all the characters and the last 1/3 was just fascinating to be along the ride for but I could not explain this book to anyone. It's weird and wonky and definitely not for everyone because of the style alone. There's also a character with a particularly hard to read backstory. Though there is no graphic detail given, my stomach turned and I was so uncomfortable in every flashback scene she had to her step dad.
