Customer Reviews

Not condition described

This review is not about the book's content, but about the book's condition. It was lists as "like new," but it has greasy stains on its front and back covers, and has a folded back cover corner.

Never Got My package

Paid for the book and another one by the same author and I got my other book but never got this one. Extremely disappointed.

I love this author

I read these out of sequence. I read the bada** witch book first and (my bad) had expectations of the princess in this book. I was disappointed. While there were times she came through some bad things, ultimately she ended up with a prince who fulfills all her dreams. Which is wonderful (of course) because she picked him and yada yada... AND she is supposed to make a life for herself. There was very little finding of herself without the kindness and understanding of this benevolent prince. She was lucky. In these "non-fairy tales" it might be nice for there not to be a prince or princess or non-gender binary royal with whom the princess ends up. Could she not be happy with a wonderful group of friends in her own home with a great career? Truly saving herself?

Empowering

Definitely worth a read!
