Book Review: Emily Wilde’s Encyclopaedia of Faeries
October 22, 2024
This is not your typical dry encyclopaedia. This is one that is full of adventure, charm, wit, and last but certainly not least… faeries!
Sophie never knows how to describe herself as a reader, but she always sits purely within the realms of fiction. Depending on her mood she can roam from literary, to crime, with some dark academia and the occasional fantasy thrown in. She is also an avid consumer of mythologies and any story with a twist in that direction she’ll happily pick up.
This is not your typical dry encyclopaedia. This is one that is full of adventure, charm, wit, and last but certainly not least… faeries!
Stone BlindBy Natalia HaynesReview by Sophie Most of us may know the story of Medusa the monster, but do you
I believe that the less you know about it going in, the better! So take a chance on Piranesi if you’re in the mood for something different.
With brilliantly engaging characters and a land so vividly brought to life, this novel felt incredibly nostalgic the whole way through!
It strikes the perfect balance between mythological history and adventure story, with a strong cast of characters so vividly brought to life.
Through the female voices of the Greek mythological world, we are thrown into a complex narrative full of resentment, pride, & innocence
