Warning: spoilers ahead
This book was amazing! It was fun to see Jack, from Jack and the beanstalk, bring Rapunzel down from the tower. I loved how the witch wrote books saying how horrible life down was and erasing Rapunzel’s memories because that makes the story all the more interesting and makes Rapunzel more innocent. In fact, I just loved the witch. I know what she did and kept doing was horrible, but I couldn't help but feel bad for her. She actually cared about Rapunzel, so I ended up actually mourning her death. As for Jack, at first I hated him, but as the story progressed I actually started liking him and wanted him to end up with Rapunzel. My opinion on the fairies didn't change though. I absolutely hated them. They treated Rapunzel so unfairly and acted as if she was a villain as well, which is ridiculous because she was a victim as well. All she did was try to help out a fairy, and yet they hate her for it. She couldn't have possibly have known that she'd end up hurting the fairy. She deserved better treatment.
Other than those horrible fairies, I don't really have any complaints about this book. I liked most of the characters, I liked the possible romance and I liked the world building. All in all, a really good read.

I was completely charmed by this book. It had all the innocence of a Disney classic but all the cleverness of a classic Pixar flick (making it quite enjoyable for older audiences).

Read it! This is the kind of light reading we should encourage.

2nd read:

I was surprised that it held up so well. Still charming and quite fun to read after the most recent sequel. Not quite as grounded in real-world concerns as the other, but hints towards a couple of potential problems.

Also was impressed at the way the author creatively introduces the reader to her world.

Apparently we have not recovered from the 2016 election... But will the kids who read this in 10 years get it, I wonder?

This book, like the others in the series, does a nice job tackling real world problems. Morrison lives in WA and certain points-of-view expressed that*. But the ending was brilliant and admirable. I loved the thoughts Syrah expressed about the nature of government types. And there was romance. But not from the expected quarters. Just as you really think the story is about The Frog Prince but that there is another one lurking in the background that you can't quite get until the culmination of it all. It was charming, inclusive, at times humorous, and altogether darling. Here's hoping the other people catch on and we can get another book in the series before long.


*Which was not a bad thing.

Prediction: The next book will take on vaccines. :D

A little too predictable for an adult like me who knows early 1900 history. Definitely had more of a visible agenda than the first one. I liked Dash, though. And it will be interesting to see the sequel...
