These books are a twist on fairytales, and of all the fairytale retellings, these ones take first place.
All the characters have so much depth and they're all so unique from one another.

Ultimately, it’s a YA book that follows expected YA plots. That’s fine, and I think it’s unfair to expect something else from it. Its predictability can make it particularly comfortable to read, also.
I will probably come back to this book many times in my life!
