"there are worse things than sleep," the fairy answers softly, and she may be the villain but she's not wrong.
The only damned complaint i have about this book is that it was way too short!
I swear i could read a thousand more pages of Zin having fairy-tale adventures in interdimensional parallel worlds and ranting out evil fairy curse givers, old medieval gender roles, overly formal language, and un-charming prince charmings. BUT ALAS! I have to concede that Alix E.Harrow did a terrific job at writing this short book. We get the full experience of discovering a far beyond fairytalesque land whilst still being grounded to our modern thoughts and ways thanks to the main character.
The author has a way with words that's indescribable, i really look up to her on that front and i can only aspire to be as good a writer as she is. The best of her works are yet to be read by me but that's because they seem too daunting for my stale brain.
