Overall I think this is a good companion book and it rounds out the series very well. I didn’t enjoy every story in this book, some were stronger than others. Some of my favourite stories in this book were The door that wasn’t there, Alice three times, The house under the stairwell, Isla waits, Twice killed Katherine, Death and the woodwife. Albert really knows how to weave disturbing fairytales. It’s been a while since I’ve read The Hazel Wood, so all the stories weren’t as fresh. The Hazel Wood was one of my favourite reads of 2018, so I was excited to read this novella. I love fairytales, especially darker fairytales.
