edit data

Amanda Sloothaak is an self-published author (under the name of her own Indie Imprint: It Mearke Publishing) who was born and grew up in a small town in Fryslân, the Netherlands, where she still resides. She has a deep love for nature, rainy days, and specifically the cold temperatures. Her family nourished creativity all her life, through which she developed a voracious appetite for reading, mythology, history, and creating her own worlds with writing.

When she isn't writing, you can find her taking long walks with her dog in the woods, dragging her photo camera along, trying to narrow down her never-ending TBR, studying mythology and history, or painting and drawing. ...more

4,5 stars for me. This is a beautiful, deliciously wicked and at the same time sad at certain parts story. A story where I found myself rooting for both Keres and Rosalin.
