The Wicked Remain

ebook

1 of 1 copy available

Every fairy tale hides a curse. And at Grimrose Académie, four girls are rewriting theirs—or dying trying.

Within the ivy-draped walls of Grimrose, the truth is more terrifying than fiction: girls are dying, and the stories shaping their fates are darker than anyone imagined. Nani, Yuki, Ella, and Rory thought uncovering the source of the curse would save them—but knowing the story is only the beginning. Escaping it is another matter entirely.

As the lines between destiny and defiance blur, each girl must confront the shadows clawing at her story. Can the girls change their own stories and break the curse? Or must one of them die to end it forever?

From New York Times bestselling author Laura Pohl comes the stunning conclusion to a duology hailed for its fierce heroines, immersive atmosphere, and unapologetically queer storytelling. For readers who crave feminist retellings, morally tangled mysteries, and the gothic allure of dark academia, The Wicked Remain is a spell you won't want to break.

      The girls from Grimrose Acad�mie must break a fairy-tale curse before death comes for them in this follow-up to 2021's The Grimrose Girls. Ever since friends Nani, Rory, Ella, and Yuki discovered there is a curse at the heart of Grimrose that has killed many girls over the years and that may yet take their own lives, they have started their own investigation on how to break the cycle of death and destruction. As the girls recover from the recent events--brought about by their own hands--that ended with another dead body, they each must figure out how their own lives fit into a presumably prescribed narrative. But as their deadline looms ever closer, the secrets they are keeping are opened wide, and the balance between life and death hangs on one fateful choice. Pohl's latest bursts open the doors of multiple fairy tales, here retold with a feminist, empowering focus on the friendships between the girls, how far they are willing to go for one another, and their individual journeys to determine their own destinies. While the pacing suffers from a slight slump in the middle, the novel fulfills on its own promising conceit with a cast of characters featuring diversity in ethnicity, disability, sexuality, and mental health. A fitting ending to a great duology. (Fantasy. 14-18)
