Review

Praise for Comfort Me With Apples“No one can move from sweet whimsy to bone-deep dread with the deftness of Catherynne M. Valente. Comfort Me With Apples is a darkly elegant fairytale-horror story that will haunt you in the best ways. Move it to the top of your TBR.” ―Christopher Golden, New York Times bestselling author“A lush and furious fairytale. Valente always delivers.” ―Laurie Penny, screenwriter for The Haunting of Bly Manor and author of Everything Belongs to the Future“I just about melted into the story, and someone will have to comb through Valente’s exquisite prose to fish out my skeleton because I was wholly lost in the tale. It was so clever, so nefarious, so, well, Valente. To me, she’s Angela Carter with knives for teeth.” ―Roshani Chokshi, New York Times bestselling author“Comfort Me With Apples is a furious and tantalizingly crooked domestic mystery, as slim and sharp as a needle.” ―Melissa Albert, bestselling author of The Hazel Wood“Valente’s prose is crystalline as always: airy, beautiful, perfect as Sophia herself. But under all that beauty, there is an open wound bleeding so much rage. Comfort Me With Apples is the first book in a long time that has managed to surprise me: an experience both cathartic and unforgettable.” ―Cassandra Khaw, award-winning author
