The Convergence of Fairy Tales by Octavia Cade

4.0

I love how unique and messy this story is. Rather than being limited to one primary characterization, as many canonical female characters are, this book demonstrates how someone can fulfill many roles in her life, at times being a Snow Queen or a Sleeping Beauty or a Frog Princess. As she journeys, she doesn’t leave behind one identity for another but carries them all and grows.

Some parts were a little confusing, especially the logistics of the world building, but as long as you give in to the suspension of disbelief, this is a lovely, gritty tale.
