Hi hello,
Welcome to my first blog post of 2024! What better way to kick off the new year than with a book review?
I recently had the pleasure of becoming immersed in The Girl Behind the Glass, a fantasy retelling of Snow White with a dark twist.
Told in a dual narrative style, we’re introduced to Winnie, daughter of the Mayor of Cranwick and Princess Frost, daughter of the King of Icefall. Both characters are fierce and willing to do whatever it takes for the ones that they love. I did say this was a twist on the traditional Snow White fairytale so of course we also have a stepmother and plenty of high-stakes secrets and plotting.
I absolutely adored the world-building and the dual narrative; admittedly I did struggle initially to understand the inner workings of the world and conflict with the witches but the more I read, the more familiar and addictive it became. The Girl Behind the Glass is a book with strong, sassy female protagonists and themes of family, identity and belonging that you’re guaranteed to get hooked on.
I can’t wait to see more of what this world brings!
