    About this audiobook

    With Anna-Marie McLemore's signature lush prose, Dark and Deepest Red pairs the forbidding magic of a fairy tale with a modern story of passion and betrayal.

    Summer, 1518. A strange sickness sweeps through Strasbourg: women dance in the streets, some until they fall down dead. As rumors of witchcraft spread, suspicion turns toward Lavinia and her family, and Lavinia may have to do the unimaginable to save herself and everyone she loves.

    Five centuries later, a pair of red shoes seal to Rosella Oliva’s feet, making her dance uncontrollably. They draw her toward a boy who knows the dancing fever’s history better than anyone: Emil, whose family was blamed for the fever five hundred years ago. But there’s more to what happened in 1518 than even Emil knows, and discovering the truth may decide whether Rosella survives the red shoes.

      This book was INCREDIBLE. It was my first Anne-Marie McLemore novel and I can already say that I have completely fallen in love with their writing style. I can’t express how beautifully written this book was and how much this story means to me. The audiobook was also absolutely perfect. I’m so happy I read this !

      I stubbled upon this book by chance. Girl am
      I glad that it came up in my recommendations. The different lives across time is so well written and narration is lovely to hear. I could see the whole story in my imagination. Not predicable or overly sweet in romance. I finished this audio book within 24 hours.
