Mirrors (The Curse of Lanval Book I) Rebekah Dodson
You probably won’t like my story. Heck, I’m not sure if I even like it myself. Between getting burned at the stake and being drowned, almost twice, it’s quite a lot to swallow. But this is the story of how I bedded a queen and married a poet, all to end the family curse. My name is Guillaume, but you can call me Gill, and despite what you hear, this story is all my sister’s fault.

Always love George's stories. He weaves mythology into his stories in such a clever subtle way. Must read!
That neon title really steals the show! Very eye catching, and I love the concept of reinterpreting fairy tales in a cyberpunk setting.
A fascinating take on ancient Greek mythology! Opening chapters bring the reader right into this page-turning story. Don't miss out!
