I am so glad you all picked this book for me. It was a really fun read and a great fairytale type story. I really liked the characters and the story was interesting. I did find it was a bit slow at times, sort of wanted more of the end and less of the middle. I think the “villain” as the end wasn’t explained enough and the ending happened so quickly, however, overall, I really liked this story.
The story is told in multiple POVs. I really liked Derric and the prince made me laugh a few times. This was a really fun adventure and something I would love to read more if. I am looking forward to the next book, if she writes one.
Regardless of the slow middle, I absolutely enjoyed this book. I loved the characters and thought this is a start of a good series. I highly recommend for anyone looking for a great new fairytale. I almost felt like this had a little of the swan princess in it which was fun to read and has great diverse characters.
Thanks for stopping by to check out my review.
Have a great day and Happy Reading!
I’m so happy you enjoyed this one despite a few issues, Michelle! I was hoping you’d like it. ๐ And now I’m hoping my library has it!
It sounds like a cute story, especially if you’re in the mood for light!
My read a bit darker this time, kind of a Medieval CSI. It was very good, and I’m only a little late! ๐
Glad you enjoyed it. ๐
Sounds like this was a fun one overall! Too bad about those small things like the there was too much of the middle and the villain not getting explained enough. The multiple point of views sounds like it worked well here and like the characters were fun to read about. I really like the cover for this one it looks a bit cute and it gives a good feel that this is a fairytale retelling. Great review!
I think it needed a bit more character build. Felt the villain was a little rushed and you didn’t get to see how bad he really was. I did enjoy the multiple POVs sometimes they don’t work but this worked pretty good. Over all it was good, I do love the cover too!
Yey! Glad you enjoyed this one Michelle! I love fairy tales so should probably check it out ๐
it was cute, I hope it is a series (even tho it says it is) would love to learn more about the characters.
