first, thanks to all of you who post suggestions on here. I have read some cracking books because of you and am most grateful x

My taste is pretty eclectic and right now i am really in the mood for a fairy tale, perhaps like Grimm but for grown ups. Quite dark.

Does anybody have a suggestion please?

Ps is it me or does the word faerie seem more spooky than fairy?

Thanks x

The Snow Child by Eowyn Ivey?

Little, Big by John Crowley is a great adult fairy story (although not that dark. Indith's suggestion is great as well.
