The Logic of Fairy Tales | AstraDaemon

Dark fantasy about a kitchen girl obsessed with fairy tales, who upon discovering a ragged woman outside the castle during a storm, takes her in--certain she’s a princess in disguise.

RED AS BLOOD AND WHITE AS BONE by Theodora Goss is a strange short story with a mix of fantasy and historical fiction. I love the way Klara approaches her life with logic based on fairy tales. The best part is how well that logic gets her through the dark times in her life.

As always,
AstraDaemon
