Review "The thoughtful portrait of these women combines with fast-paced action, mystery, and magic, and readers will be hooked."--School Library Journal"This sequel continues to showcase a lush landscape and an innovative intertwinement of classic Perrault with the unconventional, with considerations of power and hierarchy present as the sisters discover the dark workings of love and family that have affected their lives and land."--Kirkus Reviews"Hillyer's lyrical writing, the references to multiple fairy tales, and several slow-burn romances, one of which is same-sex, will appeal to readers. Fans of the author's Spindle Fire (2017) will be eager to see how this duology ends."--ALA Booklist About the Author Lexa Hillyer is the cofounder of Glasstown Entertainment, a former YA editor, and the author of Proof of Forever, Spindle Fire, and Winter Glass.
