The writing style was beautifully lyrical while still being a very fast paced read! I flew through it.
I would have liked the plot to be a bit more complex and developed, though I still enjoyed the story we got. It really felt like your classic kind of fairytale with love, betrayal, and revenge. Though, I expected it to be darker than it was.
Finally, I wanted to highlight the illustrations by Bonnie Helen Hawkins, which further invoked that feeling of fairytale whimsy!
