4.75 out of 5 stars.
I will always love Disney's Sleeping Beauty, therefore I rounded up this book to 5 stars.
Was this book too perfect and flawless for me to give it 5 stars? No. But I'm so glad and beyond happy that the author decided to write this book, and make it from Phillip's perspective, and also add a bit minor, but good changes here and there.

Loved reading about Philips perspective on this tale, loved the plot twist and of course the HEA ending. The writing we detailed and really brought personality to Philip, he was well relatable in this story as well as annoying but also human like anyone else. I definitely purchased this book from my local bookstore and would recommend it.
i love seeing the princes pov. and i almost always love the endings of these than the movie. i wasn't expecting the age gap though
