First of all, look at that gorgeous chapter header! That's enough to catch your eye straight away, I love attention to detail.

I've never read a retelling of Rumpelstiltskin before so to say I'm curious is an understatement. I'm a sucker for any book that includes a touch of romance, magic, mystical creatures and hunts lead by a sinister Erlking. Especially one that makes the main female character shiver and gasp when he speaks! I even found myself gasping and swooning many many times alongside Serilda.

The writing in this book is beyond brilliant. Every chapter is written in a way to drag you in from the word go.  You could say its like magic. People say only good books have the ability to drag you into another world to re-live a life that isn't your own. Well, this is that book. GILDED is the book that uses MAGIC to help you get there.
