This was very cute, but the dialogue felt a bit stilted.

Almost everything about the plot and the romance felt underdeveloped and rushed, but I did like certain aspects of the main character's development.

Really sweet but also interesting look at a futuristic look at robots and artificial intelligence. I know this has been published for years, but it almost felt timely reading this considering the discussion that's been happening this past year about the potential ethical and accuracy issues of AI.

This book was a great way to introduce myself to T. Kingfisher's work. I've always had a soft spot for fairy tale retellings/re-imaginings, and this one did a good job with giving a new spin on a familiar story.

Overall, I thought this was a very heartwarming and sweet read- but don't be mislead by the cover into thinking that this story doesn't deal in depth with heavy topics.
