I am a total sucker for retelling of fairy tales! This story is an amazing retelling of Rumplestiltskin. I am so excited to read the rest of it! This story has a compelling narrator, with her blessing being not of a god with a golden heart, but one of lies. I find it easy to sympathize with her kind, caring nature, despite all the cards stacked against her, and turn each page eagerly to see how she will get herself out of the challenging situations she finds herself in. Early on, we see that her life has not been an easy one; and yet, she strives to be a role model for the children who look up to her, and she defends people who are in need. She is strong, and selfless, and it is genuinely easy to sympathize with her as a protagonist, which makes for an enjoyable reading experience. This story is certainly one that will be worth the read; and, I suspect, many, many rereads in the future!
