A review by saoirse_the_thespian
Once Upon a Broken Heart by Stephanie Garber

adventurous hopeful mysterious medium-paced

• Plot- or character-driven? A mix
• Strong character development? It's complicated
• Loveable characters? Yes
• Diverse cast of characters? No
• Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.5

I preferred this way way way over Caraval by Garber. With that series, I felt her writing wasn’t as strong (excluding the first one). I had nervously high hopes and I thoroughly enjoyed reading this. The wait for my copy of The Ballad of Never After is going to be torture. Also, bonus points for everything about this book feeling aesthetic. From the cover to the Magnificent North, I literally felt so main character core.
