polydellamore's review against another edition
4.0
Me encanta que Shirayuki sea tan de armas tomar, no se deja amedrentar por lo que puedan opinar o decir los demás, ella es quien decide su destino y lucha por ello.
Es una chica que sigue sus ideales y no se deja sobornar ni que nadie la haga sentir algo que no es. Me encanta que a pesar del contexto en el que está situada la historia, ella no sea una simple damisela en apuros que espera por ayuda, si no que hace todo lo que está a su alcance por salvarse ella misma, si bien no siempre tiene exito, o al menos no lo logra del todo, si puede luchar y mantenerse en pie hasta que llega la caballería.
Pero Zen también es un personaje que sale del esteriotipo, un príncipe tan atento y preocupado, tan amable y lleno de sentimiento... *suspiro*

Izana tries stirring up some real trouble for Zen, but luckily he has things handled. And, despite his attempts, Shirayuki isn't easily rattled or swayed, either.
Izana is a bit of a jerk, but honestly I feel like he's being put on as a lot tougher than he is. We get a glimpse of his and Zen's past, and it makes Izana look even worse. But also, he's not much against Shirayuki, really.
In the second half of the volume, things get a bit more easy-going. Shirayuki has caught some public attention, and so she gets a bodyguard. It feels like a triangle is being attempted here, but I'm not really into that, and it's also not very strong at this point.
We get to meet a new girl, there to fight for her land and birds against a new viscount taking over her land. She hates nobles, but hits it off with Shirayuki. Their meeting is a bit one-dimensional, which I think this series has suffered from a few times.
This volume was okay. I've warmed up a little to Shirayuki and Zen, but still some of this series just hits meh for me. I really want to like this series a lot more than I do.
