Wow! What an amazing book! So creative and imaginative! I liked how it twisted the old fairy tales.
It was both very original and traditional and I liked that combination. It made me think back to Mio, My Son, Narnia and The Neverending Story, but it still gave me something new and shook things up in a fun and frightening way. It was fun and thrilling and captivated me completely. Loved it!
The negative thing was that my edition cheated me! I thought there was 150 pages left and then it just ended! And the rest was interviews end extra material. I was so disappointed! I was a bit confused when I felt the story drawing to an end with still 200 pages left, but I thought there would be some twist in the plot to continue the story! And then it just stopped and I wasn't even prepared!
