"Deliciously dark.With echoes of Bluebeard and the Hades and Persephone myth, this decadent tale is sure to please fans of gritty fantasy romance." - Publishers Weekly " A Dark and Wild Wood reads like a grimoire for overcoming, a hypnotic spell that pulls you under and then pushes you out into the light. I can't wait for whatever Sarah Nicole Lemon writes next." - Hannah Whitten, New York Times bestselling author of For the Wolf "A gorgeously gothic fairy tale that goes down as sweet and bitter as blackberry wine. I would follow Lemon's voice into the fey depths of the forest." - Ava Reid, #1 New York Times bestselling author of A Study in Drowning "A lushly beautiful, devastatingly real story wrapped in the trappings of classic fairytale horror, A Dark and Wild Wood feels like a fever dream I never wanted to wake up from." - Kiersten White, #1 New York Times bestselling author of Hide "No one writes like Sarah Nicole Lemon.
She is a poet with knives for teeth. Her language will leave you carved out, and her sense of story is its own kind of witchcraft." - Roshani Chokshi, New York Times bestselling author " A Dark and Wild Wood is a feverishly beautiful dream of a novel, with lyrical prose and a vengeful heart." - Tasha Suri, nationally bestselling author of The Jasmine Throne " A Dark and Wild Wood is not a romance, but you will fall in love with Salomé's journey. Reading Lemon's work is a joy, her art begs you to linger. By the time you reach the end, you will be as hungry as the forest for more." - Nikki St. Crowe, nationally bestselling author of The Never King "A dark, spellbinding, and eldritch story.
Its claws and teeth sink into you like a beast in the woods and don't let go . " - S. Jae-Jones, New York Times bestselling author of Wintersong "Lemon's voice is beautifully raw and unapologetic, in that way can only be earned from lived experience. Her words--always a study in survival, always holding space for women to be both soft and sharp--are vitally important." - Emily X.R. Pan, award-winning and New York Times bestselling author of The Astonishing Color of After.
