The Island of Happiness: Tales of Madame d'Aulnoy by Marie-Catherine d'Aulnoy

basbleu_dans_labiblioteque's review

slow-paced

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

4* for the fairy tales. I really like Mme D'Aulnoy's descriptions but some of the plots are over-involved, the shorter tales usually work better for me.
However, Fairy Magotine and her army of puppets I like. Definitely 5* for the incredible art of Natalie Frank.
