Interestingly enough, this book takes the fairy tale of Rumplestiltskin and takes away every reference to magic in it. It instead becomes a historical fiction tale set in Victorian America. However, it's still worth the read because the author does a pretty good job of believably incorporating every story element to the new tale. Every now and then, however, it gets a little cheesy. The final line of the book basically reads like the last line of a joke.
