Much much darker than I would have expected. This book tackles alot of serious and very real mental health issues/obsticals, and does not shy away. I was relieved and grateful at the hope found throuought, and especially at the end of the story. Aurora Rose may had had a grotesque awakening to reality, but I wanted her to have a second chance to live. The very verrrry end was slightly rushed, considering the pace of the rest of the book; however- it was a very brave story, told from one of the most underrated princesses.
