READ THIS. READ THIS. READ THIS.

Okay fr I did NOT think I was going to get a 5-star read out of this one but the dark fantasy, fairytale-esque nature of this book blew. Me. Away.

#OneDarkWindow is a literal masterpiece and @rmgillig will for sure be joining my list of auto-read authors.

What I Liked:
The world is fresh and new with also a sort of nostalgic Brothers Grimm type feel
So twisty. I love a good twist and this book was full of them
The magic system is really intriguing and our MC manages to have a special place in that without the “chosen one trope” being too glaringly obvious
The riddles and the rhymes! (Trust me on this)

What I DID NOT Like (Not much):
Some of the characters that I think were supposed to be main characters were fairly one dimensional. I did not have the sort of attachments to them that I otherwise would.
The writing style takes a second to get used to if you’re coming off of other fantasy novels but it’s well done and clever

I really can’t say much more without giving too much away but trust me on this. If you like dark fairytales or unique low fantasy, you absolutely HAVE to give this a shot!
