"Effy was remembering all the curses that turned princesses back to peasant girls as soon as the bell struck twelve. Why was it always girls whose form could not be trusted? Everything could be taken away from them in an instant."

I think the quote really embodies the sadness and grief I experienced reading this 💔 

I love Effy's growth during the book and just want her to have so much goodness in her future ♥️

My favorite part was probably Effy and Rhia's snarky conversations and the spider war 😂

The storm scenes were so well written and I could really see it playing out like a movie in my head! 🌧️

I personally would have preferred if Effy and Preston's relationship would've turned out more friends than lovers, but that's just me!
