The Darkest Part of the Forest
by Holly Black
Our rating
Spice: none. Darkness: some dark moments.
In Fairfold, tourists come to gawk at a horned boy asleep in a glass coffin in the woods. Then Hazel finds the coffin smashed and empty. Two romances, one of them queer, and a brother-sister story that hits just as hard.
