All I think of was Rumpelstiltskin, but with a twist! I definitely enjoyed this book very much. I’ve never picked up any of her books before so this was definitely a first for me. I absolutely enjoyed her writing very much. I enjoyed it even more whilst listening to the audiobook.

This book reminded me of that time I went on a gruelling canoe trip in Algonquin park. In concept, brilliant … In execution, wayyyy too much prep time, then speckled with moments of pure magic, but mostly a frickin’ SLOG. The home stretch and the feeling of accomplishment once it was finally done made up for a lot of desperately wishing I could just skip to the good parts.
