Reviews and Comments
This is a short but well written Retelling of Sleeping Beauty that I enjoyed reading overall. All the characters seemed fairly well developed considering this is a short story with not a lot of time to work with and the background was also filled out enough to draw me into the world.
I received a free advanced reader copy of this book via Booksprout and am voluntarily leaving a review.
