A tad unsatisfying at parts (looking at the end in particular) but so so sweet and special.   Also reminds me of Shannon Hale’s Goose Girl series!!! Which is the highest compliment
Bloody brilliant! *will add more detail and specifics later because I have a lot of thoughts. So many quotable quotes and opinions on characters*

 If you’ve read other fantasy novels, particularly those of Shannon Hale and Kristin Cashore, you will be just fine in terms of content warnings and the like. You will also very likely love this book as much (if not more) than I did. Plus, the acknowledgements section features an absolutely GOATED list of queer authors: Alice Oseman, Becky Albertalli, Casey McQuiston, and Rainbow Rowell (among others)!! 

You can tell a lot of thought and care was put into this book and it was delightful overall. We need this book, and so many more books like it. So many air kisses and hugs to the author and all who made it possible. MWAH!
