3.0

This book has some cleverness to it but almost too clever. Some of the chapters dragged on a little too long and there was SO much trauma. Which is a good read of some these fairy tale women but some it seemed overwraught. The author definitely had a POV and it became heavyhanded. Overall I enjoyed the writing style and would read other books by this author.
