An enchantingly beautiful testament to the power of storytelling, sisterhood, and love. Hands down one of my favourite graphic novels of all time, 10/10 would recommend to anyone who likes stories about women and what they can do even when the odds are all stacked against them.

I loved this book of stories - fairy tales but centered around women's stories and strength. I also loved the graphics.

I'm not really sure how to review a graphic novel, but I really enjoyed this one. It's a feminist balm for the soul when you feel like screaming about the patriarchy, although it still leaves you wanting to scream about the patriarchy, so maybe not that effective a balm. Maybe it's more of a sense of camaraderie in the fact that other people are screaming too.

Not sure I have any real criticism for this one. It's simple, but in such a nice way. The art is truly gorgeous, extremely stylized and unique. Sisterhood and a parody of manly men told in the distinct voice or oral tradition.
