The Puppetmaster's Apprentice by Lisa Deselm
5.0
What can I say about this Pinocchio retelling, other than that I loved every second of it?!
The first half I found sad in a beautiful way, and the second half is the beauty of empowerment and finding oneself.
I really enjoyed how parts of Pinocchio’s became Lisa DeSelm’s own through small details such as the splinters. Her writing was so easy to read and kept me up late into the night, unable to stop.
Piro’s strength was probably my favourite aspect of her character. How, even when she felt broken, she was still strong. In the writing it was like I could feel her longing to be fully free.
I will definitely recommend this to friends and I look forward to more books from this author.
