The Grimm Brothers' fairytale "The Juniper Tree" is considered their darkest story. Which is just one reason why writer Ava Reid decided to put her own spin on it with her #Gothic #horror novel "Juniper & Thorn." For more, check out this Q&A. https://t.co/HI3TtAnAbw ππ³π¦ https://t.co/q92MegYfTX

Emily St John Mandel
Finished reading Emily St. John Mandel's "Station Eleven" https://t.co/A9Xvpoknwb ππ¦ Have mixed feelings about this.
