Gretel on Her Own by Elna Holst
3.0
Rating: 3/5
Gretel on Her Own is a modern-day, queer retelling of Hansel and Gretel! I found the writing to be engaging and I was flying through this book to find out what was going to happen! I, unfortunately, wasn't sold on the relationship aspect of this book, but I did appreciate the lesbian rep and maybe if this book had been a bit longer, I would have connected with the characters more. All in all, this was a fun and unique reimagining of a classic fairytale!
