Customer Reviews

A lovely extension of the movie!

This was a lovely companion to the 2018 film. I loved getting a peek into Marie's childhood and the mysterious and fantastical origins of the Realms. I loved getting to see inside Sugar Plum's mind, learning how she grappled with the changes to her perfect world. The writing was a great mix of simplistic and easy to read, and atmospheric prose. The author really painted a warm and magical picture of Christmas time. There were a few deviations from the film that I wasn't happy with, but overall, it was a lovely holiday read that would be enjoyable to any fellow lovers of the Nutcracker! Even if you've never seen the movie
