I liked it, but I prefer the anime. The characters and the plot were more fleshed out, and the dialogue was more entertaining. It was also a bit difficult to keep track of who was talking, and some of the dialogue just felt a bit off. That said, it's the author's first book, and I want to see where the story goes after the end of the anime, so I'm going to keep reading. I also enjoyed the author's commentary. The art style is also really nice, and I liked that the author did so much background research. I was worried that Shirayuki would fall into the "not like other girls" trope, but that was not the case at all.
Moderate: Stalking, Sexual harassment, and Kidnapping

Slice of life about an aspiring court herbalist running from creepy captors who are obsessed with her hair color. Simultaneous cute and cringe. Cute because a romance is budding, but cringe because men want to capture a woman due to sexual attraction.
Graphic: Stalking and Emotional abuse
Moderate: Violence
