Suffice enough to say that this story was rather... comforting. The story stayed true to its fictional world and fairytale basis, and yet mixed in a hard set of reality that was rather therapeutic. I left this book feeling calmed. One would expect to be panicked when discussing the hard-hitting truths that this novel tells, and yet, does not sugar coat. But it was the opposite. I'm quite glad I picked this up. Oddly enough, this book somehow reframed my perspective on life at the moment... Wouldn't have saw that coming from a fantasy novel picked up on a whim!
All in all, it was a splendid read! The author covered a series of heavy topics in a way that still held onto hope that didn't feel stretched or naive.

I would love to know so much more about all the other Sleeping Beauties we saw for a short (or a longer) time on page.
