It was such a joy reading this immediately after the first book. I read it cover to cover in one sitting and couldn’t put it down. It has great bi rep. While novellas are always too short for me, this left me wanting in a good way and I’m very satisfied at the end. Once again, I was swept away by the story world jumping and the romance. Loved the fluid sexuality rep. Once again appreciated Zinnia’s growth through the story. It’s cute, fun and adventurous. 

I would recommend to fantasy novella fans!

Good news: If you loved A Spindle Splintered, you’re going to love A Mirror Mended, too. This novella duology is about a girl named Zinnia Gray, a young woman living with a terminal illness. In A Spindle Splintered, she finds herself suddenly transported into the Sleeping Beauty story, with the woman in question in need of saving. No spoilers, but in this second book, we’re back with Zinnia as she fairy-tale-hops — but is she being noble, or running from something? And what if this time, she’s wrong about who needs saving?

This duology is just so fun and badass and heartwarming (and sapphic!). And at novella length, they’re the perfect quick, light reads when you need something to escape the world. I loved the way Alix Harrow turned fairy tales on their heads, loved the sharp, hilarious banter between characters, loved Zinnia and her growth arc in this second book. You really just can’t go wrong picking these up — they’re more than worth the couple of hours it will take to breeze through them!
