Reviews
Bizarre, beautiful, and richly imagined. Sarah Porter weaves a dark, thoroughly modern fairy tale crackling with wit and magical mayhem that would make Baba Yaga proud. - Leigh Bardugo, New York Times bestselling author of the Grisha Trilogy and Six of Crows "An enchantingly twisted modern fairy tale, perfect for those who prefer Grimm to Disney. Inventive, darkly magical and beautifully written, it will stay with me for a long time." - Kendare Blake, author of Anna Dressed in Blood and The Goddess War trilogy, "With a deft hand, lovely prose, and an eye for details, Porter reworks the Russian story of Vassilissa the Beautiful, setting it in an industrial Brooklyn where magic seeps into the mundane.... the end result is an ethereal, almost dreamlike fairy tale that generates a magic all its own." -- Booklist, starred review "In this urban-fantasy take on the Russian folk tale 'Vassilissa the Beautiful,' Porter weaves folk motifs into a beautiful and gripping narrative filled with magic, hope, loss, and triumph." -- Kirkus Reviews, starred review "[E]lements of traditional horror blend well with high-concept fantasy in this surprising and engaging tale.... A must-have for YA urban fantasy collections." -- School Library Journal , starred review

Synopsis
"A dark, thoroughly modern fairy tale crackling with wit and magical mayhem." --Leigh Bardugo, New York Times bestselling author of Shadow and Bone "An enchantingly twisted modern fairy tale, perfect for those who prefer Grimm to Disney. Inventive, darkly magical, and beautifully written, it will stay with me for a long time." -- Kendare Blake, New York Times bestselling author of Three Dark Crowns STEP INTO THE ENCHANTED KINGDOM OF BROOKLYN, WHERE MAGIC--AND DANGER--LURKS AROUND EVERY CORNER A powerful and haunting tale for teen fans of urban fantasy, fairy tales, magic, and horror who enjoy books by Leigh Bardugo, Kendare Blake, Catherynne Valente, and V. E. Schwab. When Vassa's stepsister sends her out to buy lightbulbs in the middle of the night, she knows it could easily become a suicide mission. Babs Yagg, the owner of the local convenience store, has a policy of beheading shoplifters--and sometimes innocent shoppers as well. But Vassa has a bit of luck hidden in her pocket, a gift from her dead mother. Erg is a tough-talking wooden doll with sticky fingers, a bottomless stomach, and ferocious cunning. With Erg's help, Vassa just might be able to break the witch's curse and free her Brooklyn neighborhood. But Babs won't be playing fair.... · YALSA Best Fiction for Young Adults Selection · Booklist Best Fiction for Young Adults Selection · Booklist Youth Top 10 SF/Fantasy Selection · Kirkus Reviews Best Books of the Year Selection · Kansas Reading Circle Selection, "A dark, thoroughly modern fairy tale crackling with wit and magical mayhem." --Leigh Bardugo, New York Times bestselling author of Shadow and Bone "An enchantingly twisted modern fairy tale, perfect for those who prefer Grimm to Disney.
