Dark Shimmer by Donna Jo Napoli

4.0

Entertaining and engaging, with beautiful descriptions and detail. I'm a sucker for retellings of fairy tales, and also for details of historical craftsmanship and household work, so this was right up my alley. :) It doesn't really have any greater message or deeper meaning though, beyond maybe avoid mercury poisoning? But as a nice little diversion, it's great.
