Basically the title. I adored that book and want more like it. I ADORE fairy tale tropes in a newer/more adult story. I like a roving band of misfit adventurers. A scrappy youngest daughter protagonist is a perk, but not necessary. It was such a perfect level of spooky and cozy, and I liked that the writing style is not overly ornate.
If you know any books that sound like any of the above, let me know!
Please do NOT recommend a book where romance is the primary plot or takes up a lot of pages, but I'm totally fine with romance being a small component of the story like it is in Nettle and Bone.
