The narrator for the audio book kills it with her performance. Had to say that off the bat. 

I like the direction the story took and exploring the idea of Repunzel going full witch is a lot of fun. There's some historical context and set building which add to the story and the best part is Repunzel really reflecting on how Gothel treated her. Shaky start but good ending. The framing device that the story is set in isn't necessary but sweet and touching.
