Two novellas in one. In the first novella, Pamela Sherwood does an amazing job at crafting a complete story that was inspired from the ballad, The Twa Sisters. The Bonny Swan is full of suspense, mystery, sisterly friendship and a tale that will have anxious for the plot twist reveal. The story immediately hits the ground running and keeps the reader on the end of their seat.

The second novella in the book, Every Goose A Swan is a lesser known fairytale that was inspired by Cinderella. It was equally as entertaining as the first.

I really loved this author’s writing. It was beautiful and fit well with the setting of the book but still very easy to digest making it an easy, quick read.

This collection has two sweet fairy tale novellas and two much shorter stories; all four pieces are as well-written as I've come to expect from Sherwood! There's a lilting, historical-ish, classic fairy tale flavour to the writing that really suits the tone of the retellings, and some lovely characters moments. I definitely recommend to fans of traditional retellings.

A Twist in the Tale 2 by Pamela Sherwood is such a good story... I totally recommend everyone to read this book as fast as they can because it's really good and the characters are fantastic.

A cool twist on lesser known, compelling fairytales - very Grimm-Brothers'-esque. The mysteries unfolding and the more modern focus on friendship versus romance, while still keeping the overall 'late European fairy tale' feel makes for an engaging read.
