I enjoyed this! It had all the themes of a traditional “Snow White” retelling, but stood out with a unique perspective on the story. The main character, Sophie, was a strong female protagonist, which I find refreshing in a Snow White retelling. The relationship between her and the prince was sweet and felt authentic. The ending was a bit sad, but also hopeful and had a “happily ever after”.
