I’ve read all of the books in this series. There are few mentions of the previous books, but only in passing, so you can read this book as a standalone novel without reading any of the others in the series.
This book feels slightly ‘older’ than the earlier ones and has leaned into the horror elements a bit more. Is Cozy Christmas Horror a thing? If so, this is it. It’s scary, but in places it is also genuinely funny. The big fight with the Christmas ornaments made me giggle.
If you like Terry Pratchett’s Tiffany Aching books, you’ll enjoy these books. I’m looking forward to reading more books set in Woodville.
I received an ARC through Netgalley. This is my honest review.
