from Of Slippers and Spindles - Fairy Tale Retellings and Adaptations in Books, Film, and Theatre

For our first week of Rumpelstiltskin Month, Drew and Cassie are discussing A Curse Dark as Gold by Elizabeth C. Bunce. This 2008 YA novel follows Charlotte Miller, a young woman who inherits her father's mill upon his death. Although there are rumors that the mill is cursed, Charlotte has never believed them - but it's hard to deny the bad luck that piles up as workers depart, impossible debts are revealed, and an domineering uncle enters the scene. But then a strange man named Jack Spinner offers to help, and Charlotte finds herself caught up in his bargains until she can unravel the truth of who he is, what he wants, and why - and the mill, her community, and her family are at stake. Join our community!
