The Grimrose Girls by Laura Pohl is a gripping tale of intrigue and mystery where four troubled friends face a fate that could doom them all.

This New York Times Bestseller weaves a story reminiscent of Once Upon a Time meets Pretty Little Liars, featuring a queer, dark academia narrative. It delves into the lives of four reimagined fairy tale heroines who must uncover their ancient curses before it's too late.

After the mysterious death of their best friend, Ella, Yuki, and Rory become the centre of attention at the elite Grimrose Academie. Though the police deemed Ariane's death a suicide, the trio is determined to uncover the truth.

When Nani Eszes joins them as their new roommate, they stumble upon a string of events they couldn't have foreseen. As the girls retrace their friend's final days, they unlock a dark secret of Grimrose—Ariane wasn't the first girl to die.

They soon discover that each of the past murders is linked to ancient fairy tale curses, intertwining their destinies to these stories. The girls must break the cycle or be doomed to brutal and violent ends.
