If I could give this book 10 ⭐️ I would!!

Ughh I have so much to say yet I don’t even know how to put it into words. All I will say is thank you Kalynn, for seeing us. The girls who aren’t afraid to ask questions, who aren’t afraid to say no I don’t want this/im not doing that, those of us who know we deserve better. This book is truly a testament to you always have a choice to make a better path for yourself, it just depends on what you’re willing to risk to get there. The journey may not be easy, fun, or even safe but it could very well be worth it if you’re willing to jump. Thank you for showing that sometimes no matter how badly you want something for someone you love, you sometimes have to let them go and love/choose yourself more. Sometimes closure isn’t needed, accept things at face value and continue on with what you want for yourself. 

Ugh.. this book brought up so many emotions and gave me so many gems to ponder one I’m surprised I made it through without crying. Thank you Kalynn. Thank you. Thank you. THANK YOU!🥹🥰❤️🏳️‍🌈

Fast, engaging and queer. Its a beautifull debut novel and a real break from the mold of the  fairytale story

Cinderella and the information she took to her grave played a disappointingly smaller part in the plot than advertised, but giving Prince Charming dark origins was imaginative. The plot twist involving the “fairy godmother” (Amina) was unsatisfying. I can’t put my finger on it, but there was something missing from this book. It fell into that YA trap of feeling obligated to send a message instead of just telling a story.
