I am not going to lie, I wanted to read this book because the cover. I mean, look at it! It's reminiscent of old school Disney animation, and I feel that the bulk of this book delivered that type of story.
This was an adorable yarn that definitely had that fairy tale flair. It was cute and light, until it was a bloodbath! Alas, some tears were shed at about 90%, and Keating broke my heart, but she put it back together shortly thereafter with some really sappy sweet stuff that made me smile.
If I had to pinpoint the essence of this story it would be: friendship. One of the strongest plot points is the friendship between Rory and Cecily. It was a rather beautiful friendship between two strong women, where they reinforced and supported each other.
I have to say, the female characters in this book was quite wonderful. Some were super feminine, some were prim and proper, but all were strong when they needed to be.
I will mention, that I suspected the plot twist. However, I still smiled BIG when my suspicions were confirmed.
Overall: Very cute story of love and friendship which gave me a case of the smiles.
