I ended up picking up Curse of the Wolf King A Beauty and the Beast Retelling Entangled With Fae, Book 1 by Tessonja Odette after reading The Fair Isle Trilogy. I rated this at three stars as it was an excellent comfy read, It kept me reading till the end, and I like that the next one in the series will be about Cinderella.

Reviews for "A Retreat for the Soul: Discovering Tranquility in the Magical Treehouse in the Woods"
1. John - ★★☆☆☆
I was really excited to stay at the magical treehouse in the woods, but unfortunately, it didn't meet my expectations. First of all, the treehouse was not as magical as advertised. It looked old and run-down, nothing like the enchanting image portrayed in the photos. Additionally, the amenities were very basic, and I found it uncomfortable to sleep on the thin mattress provided. Overall, I think this place needs some serious renovations before it can be considered a magical retreat.
2. Sarah - ★☆☆☆☆
I regret my decision to book the magical treehouse in the woods. The whole experience was a big letdown. The treehouse itself was small and cramped, and the living area felt suffocating. Furthermore, the cleanliness of the place was subpar. There were cobwebs in corners and a musty smell throughout. The lack of proper ventilation made it even worse. I was expecting a cozy and whimsical stay, but unfortunately, I left feeling disappointed and unsatisfied.
3. David - ★★☆☆☆
The magical treehouse in the woods did not live up to its name. It was located in a remote area with limited access to amenities, which was not mentioned in the listing. The lack of lighting around the property made it difficult to navigate at night. Additionally, the treehouse was not well-maintained, and some parts felt unsafe to use. Although the surrounding nature was beautiful, the overall experience was far from magical.
4. Emily - ★★☆☆☆
I had high hopes for the magical treehouse in the woods, but unfortunately, it fell short of my expectations. The advertised amenities, such as a fully equipped kitchenette, were not properly provided. The kitchenette lacked basic utensils and was poorly stocked. Moreover, the treehouse was infested with insects, which made our stay very uncomfortable. Overall, I would not recommend this place to anyone seeking a magical retreat.
