I loved the idea of reimagined fairytales with an lgbtq twist. The cover is pretty, the premise is promising, but I was overall a bit disappointed. I enjoyed the writing style, but for the length of each of the stories there was way too much focus on world-building and not enough on the stories themselves.

I would’ve loved to see one or two of these more developed or woven together, rather than so many short stories that felt a bit rushed and so separate. The tower was by far my favorite, if she ever chooses to expand on that one I would love to come back and read it!

Thank you to Mell Eight, NetGalley, and NineStar Press for sending me this ARC in exchange for an honest review.
