I was so excited to read this book because of how much I loved wicked! I was very disappointed. The book starts slow and stays slow until the last 3 chapters.

I've read most of his books now, and I liked Wicked the best. Mirror Mirror comes in second for me. The rest I didn't really like all that much.

Great twist on a classic fairy tale; this book keeps a nice balance between the "magical world" of fairy tales and the reality of the world that was lived at the time the story was set.

I never really figured out the point to this book but maybe because I am not quite sure what a Changling is. This is one of the few I put just simply stopped reading.
