The Midnight Girls
by Alicia Jasinska
A sapphic rivals-to-lovers fantasy where both leads are morally gray monster girls serving cruel witches. The Polish mythology setting is lush and unique, and watching two ruthless girls realize they want each other more than they want to win is deeply satisfying.
