I enjoyed this reimagined fairytale in a sci-fi setting! The world-building is pretty good, but I do find the characters a little lacking in growth. I expect that they grow and develop over the course of the series.
*** Note: The audiobook version is fine. The voice actor plays up the role of a 17-year old girl, so it feels a lot more like the natural thoughts of a teenager.

The main character is a cyborg and many people shame her for having tech parts to survive a traumatic accident. The plot focuses heavily on a plague, so there is medical content and death related to it.
