Staff Pick of the Week: Thornhedge by T. Kingfisher

The tale of a kind-hearted, toad-shaped heroine, a gentle knight, and a mission gone completely sideways.

Why Molly recommends it: Here, in this small unassuming book reads the small, unassuming tale of Toadling, the faerie. She isn't beautiful, she isn't noticeable and she has been engaged in a particular vocation for hundreds of years. One day, everything changes in that way things sometimes do and we, the readers, get a glimpse of what life can be like when the spell is broken and one can see clearly for the first time. What I truly love about this latest tale from Kingfisher is the consistent theme of love; how it defines us and how it is defined by us.
