So I did enjoy this but I wasn’t very gripped. It was extremely predictable, and I get that there was foreshadowing but I feel like there is a line between foreshadowing and predictability. It was cute but it also felt quite juvenile. That might be a me thing because I just think it was written for a younger audience.

I liked fox, and most of the characters, but they did seem very young and naive.

I liked it but I wouldn’t necessarily recommend it to people or want to read more if there was a sequel.

Seriously this book should be a series. The level of world development the author does is amazing. I feel like it's effort wasted letting it be a single book. Loved these characters.

I love fairy tales and myths.  This is the first original fairy tale I've read in decades. 
I love a heroine that refuses to be the sacrifice or sacrifice others and manages to save everyone.
