I really loved this book it was a great dark fairy tale retelling in more the style of the brothers grimm. I really loved the characters especially Sophie she grew so much as a character from a kind yet timid girl to someone strong that would become a great queen. I also really loved the romance in the story with Sophie and Will that is they just fit so well together I like that he was not a prince and the story only focused on it at certain points. I really loved the plot it started dark and just got darker before finally having a pretty good ending. So overall I loved this book I will read more by this author for sure.
