A cute fast read to get out of a reading slump. I liked the relationship between the siblings and their respective partners so much, specially Tam (they are so dear to me). I also appreciated the differences between the siblings and their narrative voices, as well as some beautiful symbolism regarding their characterization. It is slow and reflective at the beginning, but towards the middle a mystery becomes increasingly important. Nothing out of the extraordinary but nonetheless enjoyable.

quaint little queer retelling of snow white and red rose apparently? the story was pretty slow paced (and also. emotionally erratic at times?) and then got fast and consistent towards the happy ending so ??? i do like the description of stagehands and the juxtaposition of ivory's and rosie's narration
