As someone who is chronically ill, this book helped me. I appreciate that this is a retelling I a famous story, but I found the "mystery" a little predictable. The book is YA and reads that way, but it is charming, adventurous and I wish I'd had it when I was 13.

This book was incredible. The chronic illness rep was amazing and I felt so seen and saw so much of myself in Tania, and found her strength and determination so inspiring, I absolutely loved the friendships and banter in this book as well!

The very best chronic illness representation I’ve ever seen. In any media! This book means the world to me and I will never shut up about it.

It's a very fun fantasy romp. Ladies belong front and center with swords! Tania is a kickass protag who won't let anything stop her. Her friends, however, shot me through the heart with their kindness. I cried every time they said, "we won't let you fall" and then followed through. Thank you so much to Lillie Lainoff for writing a disabled protag whose friends treat her appropriately/as a PERSON instead of as a fragile doll. I very highly recommend this book to all fantasy lovers or to anyone who wants to know more about what chronic illness feels like. Full disclosure: I don't have POTS; I have rheumatoid arthritis and fibromyalgia. But I do have limited energy and I do have days where my body says "nope!!!!" to everything.

Thank you to NetGalley for a preview copy of the ebook and eaudiobook in exchange for an honest review. I ended up ordering the digital audiobook and requested that the library where I work at order it too.
