“There were no perfect kingdoms with cost, and there were no stories that were completely true - or completely false.”
Uhm, hello, I love Fox and Daisy so much🥺😭 Fox as a character reminds me of Rick O’Connell from the mummy (especially when he banters with Daisy). Each character was unique and so lovable, which made the tale even more enjoyable to read. The banter between Daisy and Fox was so genuine, authentic, and sweet. As a type of fairy tale, it seems to be meant for the younger of the young adults, but with that in mind there was a fair bit of cussing.
“You aren’t alone fox. Burdens are meant to be shared.”
“...people who die never really leave...we carry them with every breath we take, until the wind itself is gone.”
“Then there would be a hole where you should have been, and I would miss whatever was supposed to fill it.”
The last few pages definitely made me tear up. This book has such a soft spot in my heart, right next to Fairest by Gail Carson Levine.
