Resumen del Editor
A village trapped in winter, a tyrannical god, and a girl who will do anything to keep her family alive.
Ever since Cora's father disappeared through the ice, whispers about her family's "curse" have grown increasingly louder. Desperate to help her mother and siblings survive another bleak season in the Winter King's frozen grasp, Cora begins to bend (and even break) the rules she has kept since she was a little girl.
But when she discovers a secret that's much bigger than herself, she realizes too late that she has put herself - and those she loves - in even greater peril. Wintry and dangerous but hauntingly lovely, The Winter King is the debut novel from author Christine Cohen.

Selah has waited her whole life for a happily ever after. As the only daughter of the leader of Potomac, she knows her duty is to find the perfect match. But after an excruciatingly public rejection, Selah’s stepmother suggests an unthinkable solution: Selah must set sail across the Atlantic to visit a series of potential suitors - and if she doesn’t come home engaged, she shouldn’t come home at all.

Historia
Asher Todd comes to live with the mysterious Morwood family as a governess to their children. Asher knows little about being a governess but she is skilled in botany and herbcraft, and perhaps more than that. And she has secrets of her own, dark and terrible—and Morwood is a house that eats secrets. With a monstrous revenge in mind, Asher plans to make it choke. However, she becomes fond of her charges, of the people of the Tarn, and she begins to wonder if she will be able to execute her plan—and who will suffer most if she does.

Historia
When a banished witch falls in love with the legendary trickster Loki, she risks the wrath of the gods in this moving, subversive debut novel that reimagines Norse mythology. Angrboda’s story begins where most witches' tales end: with a burning. A punishment from Odin for refusing to provide him with knowledge of the future, the fire leaves Angrboda injured and powerless, and she flees into the farthest reaches of a remote forest. There she is found by a man who reveals himself to be Loki, and her initial distrust of him transforms into a deep and abiding love.

Below Forsaken Mountain, a plot is being hatched to overthrow the tyrant king of Trollus, and Marc is the right-hand man of its leader. His involvement is information more than one troll would kill to possess, which is why he must keep it a secret from everyone, even the girl he loves. After accidentally ruining her sister's chance to become queen, Pénélope is given one last opportunity by her father, the Duke d'Angoulême, to make herself useful: she must find proof that the boy she's in love with is conspiring against the crown.

Historia
Lina Meisel, a retired librarian in Florida, is reading the newspaper one morning when she freezes. Her eyes lock on a photograph of a book she hasn’t seen in 65 years - a book she recognizes as The Book of Lost Names. The accompanying article discusses the looting of libraries by the Nazis across Europe during World War II - an experience Lina remembers well - and the search to reunite people with the texts stolen from them so long ago. The book in the photograph is one of the most fascinating cases.

Part fairytale, part allegory, this book captures the imagination and soul. It’s beautifully written, with solid character growth, plot twists, and a satisfying ending. I’d heard good things about this book and was not disappointed.

Part Allegory, Part Traditional Fiction
This is a different book than the one I thought I was going to read. Cohen created a world in which the characters and supernatural elements are often symbolic, mirroring those in our own world and giving the book a kind of allegorical feel. The problems presented are struggles between good and evil. However, the war is not fought with weapons or powers which the protagonist, Cora, obtains, but with truth, integrity, kindness, faithfulness, and hope which war against lies, fear, abuse, manipulation, and moral compromise. Cora finds these things at war within herself as well as within her city.
Cohen has something to say about communities that weigh a person’s worth or favor with God by their wealth and health. Her villains are the “aldermen” (priests) who keep people living in fear of judgment while lining their pockets and physically abusing the people in their charge. The god-king is not who they say he is. As a result, the people are besieged by illness, poverty, and starvation as well as monsters sent by the evil god below. Cora finds out the truth about her god-king in an allegorical tale which weaves elements from Christianity and pagan mythology into a beautiful story of self-sacrificial love which overpowers pain and death. But to really understand and possess such things, Cohen reminds us that we must love truth and be willing to tell it and love it even when others want to live by lies.
