YES I AM GOING TO READ THE NEXT ONE IN HOPES OF A SIX STAR RATING LIKE CARAVAL!

All stories are made of both truths and lies... What matters is the way that we believe in them.

Omg you cannot leave me on a cliffhanger like this, I need answers (and the second book) ASAP. I absolutely loved this book, from the characters, to the setting, to literally everything.

Totally can't wait to go and read the next book. ...more

✨5/5 stars✨

Everything about this book is just perfect. I wish I lived in a fairy tale land like this with mini dragons, magic, and hot immortal men. I’m terrified to read the next book. ...more

If you expect a book with crazy worldbuilding and super in depth characters you are probably going to be disappointed.
Once upon a broken heart reminds me of these old fairytales, which is why I enjoyed it so much. But I understand that this type of writing is not for everyone.
