Review
This is a fairytale retelling I didn’t know much about the fairytale before reading this book. For as long as Astrid has know she was promised to marry Tyhr who she has never met before. When tragedy strikes she is forced to go and finally meet Tyhr and is immediately drawn to him. But he is cursed and has to live behind a tiger mask. He never reveals his face to her. 

Astrid barely sees her husband she only sees him at dinner but not during the day. And she only has a bird for company who’s name is Chinook. He is hilarious and him and Astrid start to get along. Astrid is determined to make this marriage work between her and Tyhr but she does something she isn’t supposed to do. Which causes great consequences for the three of them. 

We get to see Chinook and Astrid go on a great adventure with twist and turns to rescue Tyhr. I loved all the different characters we got to meet and how they all helped Astrid in one way or another. 

I wish we got a little bit more in the epilogue but I am glad they got their happy ending. 
This was a great read I would highly recommend it. I would’ve liked a bit more between interaction between Astrid and her husband and I would have liked some spice other than that I loved it.
