Margot and her mother Ruth live by the forest. They eat people, all of whom Ruth calls strays when they find their way to their home. Things change when Eden shows up during a snowstorm. The writing in this book is delectable and it had me so captivated. I wanted to find out what happens to and between Margot, Ruth, and Eden, but at the same time I never wanted to stop reading. This reminds me of stories like Hansel and Gretel, Carrie, Motherthing. I am definitely eager to read more by Lucy Rose.
