About The Last Tale of the Flower Bride 

THE LAST TALE OF THE FLOWER BRIDE by Roshani Choksi is an exquisite fever dream of dark fantasy. Faery and fairy tales weave through the story of Indigo and Azure as girls, believing they are halves of a whole soul, waiting for the day they can re-enter Faery. It’s also the story of Indigo and her groom. Full of glittery and dark fairy tale tropes – bargains, identity, promises made and broken, and secrets.

My thoughts about The Last Tale of the Flower Bride

This book is a gorgeous fairy cake that once read, leaves you aching for more. The writing is enchanting and haunting as it draws you in, slowly revealing dark secrets as past and present converge. While I wanted to savor this, I couldn’t stop reading and devoured it in a day.

In closing

If you’re a fan of fairy tales and dark retellings – think Alix Harrow, Angela Slater, or Erin Sterling, this book is most decidedly for you.

Thank you William Morrow the ARC.
