The Wicked Remain

By Laura Pohl
The Wicked Remain by Laura Pohl digital book - Fable

Publisher Description

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 Wicked Remain Reviews

3.5
“I wasn’t sure I was going to read the Grimrose Girls sequel, but I‘m glad I chose to do so. The second half of the story opens up the world a little more, and picks up almost immediately when the first left off. The multiple points of view work well to show the full story, and show the ways the girls misinterpret what they learn. The ending was satisfying for all characters involved. I think Ella and Yuki’s stories feel the most complete, but I liked Rory and Nani’s arcs a little more, especially Rory’s. If you liked the first book, definitely pick up and read the second.”
“I thought that this was a very good ending to the duology. I don’t really know what else to say other than that. There’s a happy ending and I did really feel like each of the girl’s ending was good.”
