“Spindles and Spells” is Princess Briar’s story, and I have to say that I really did love it! 

 

Briar’s no nonsense attitude was quite refreshing, as most Sleeping Beauty retellings portray the heroine as sweet, demure, and even a little naïve. 

 

I loved Briar because she was intelligent and brave, and I thought it was amazing that she was fighting to become the heir to her father’s kingdom. 

 

I read this book in one sitting, so I’d definitely say I enjoyed it. I will definitely be continuing with this series!
