This was a very unique story, even with its familiar themes throughout it. A book of fairy tales that are coming out into the "normal" world. A reclusive woman who after writing the book and publishing only a few copies, disappears. Her daughter on the run, having to move with her own daughter from place to place, seemingly whenever their luck gave out, or maybe someone from the fairy tale world showed up. The fairy tales weren't ones that were your standard stories. Nope, they were all pretty grim, pretty dark. And I mean even grimmer than the original Grimm Brothers' fairy tales. The characters were all very interesting, and I definitely got to one point where I figured it was going to leave us hanging, and we'd have to wait for the the next book to come out to get some answers. However, even though this seems to be a series, at least it is listed as book 1 on Goodreads, I feel like it ended in a way that doesn't give a chance to go on. At least not with the characters we followed in this story. But I guess we'll see how that goes!
