It starts as a whimsy fairytale but quickly turns into something darker. Don't be fooled, the author knows his tropes, the book knows its tropes, the characters know their tropes, and play with them so that you have no idea what to expect next. There were scenes that left me speechless. Good job for such a short book.

Also, the kissing scene at the end was 👀 (I had to read it three times to make sure I understood correctly who was kissing whom, wow).
