"A fun and quick fairytale remix. "
Meagan Khatthaname
"It was cute, I really enjoy the FMC and how these stories aren’t at all about her finding a happily ever after that includes a Prince Charming. She’s just a woman stumbling while trying to figure out how to make the best of life. This next book was set to remind us to enjoy where we see and stop obsessing about where we’re going and it did just that. I usually don’t love references about current life in the books I read to escape said current life but, it works so well in this. Great read, happy reading! "

"I am genuinely in awe of how much Alix E Harrow was able to delve into and pull off in... <i> checks notes </i> 128 pages, again. The concept of the multiverse breaking was exquisite, and the gay yearning was. Painful of course, but well written, and I will always enjoy the modern day contemporary humor that follows Zinnia. I really enjoyed how we were able to explore Eva's backstory without it feeling like info dumping, and still leaving <i> some </i> things to the imagination. I do have one question though, why couldn't Eva and Zinnia have written their story, together, melding them? Either way no gays were buried thankfully and the shock of the red hot iron shoes still being brought out despite Eva having technically escaped her own story with that ending was so fascinating. I understand with how this entry in the duology makes it so there can't be more, but god I would love more..."
