It's just not grabbing my full attention right now. I'll come back to it next year!

Was sadly a little disappointed. Do plan to reread it though.

Major snooze fest. This was such a struggle to get through. Characters were all underdeveloped, unlikeable, and mean to each other. The love interests were random and just thrown in for the sake of throwing them in. If I hadn't been reading this for a book club, it would have been a DNF for me.

the definition of an adult fairy tale!!!! this is one of my favorite movies and although this is one of the rare cases where I liked the movie better than the book, I still thought this story and it’s characters were addictive. idk if it’s because I’m a sucker for magic or what but loved loved loved
