Lesbian princess! I like that the presumed “villain” was actually sympathetic & trying to help Primrose. Will she & Zinnia be able to lift their “curses?” I’m liking this as an audiobook; I think I would’ve not enjoyed this if I’d read it as text. It’s a bit corny/juvenile in the writing/dialogue but bc it’s audio, it’s more passable for me.

Cheesy & a bit juvenile, but still a decent enough audiobook experience. It was like reality tv kinda enjoyment. I will say, the corny modern comedy insertions got me twice. “Well, Harold, they’re lesbians” & the part about Zinnia’s dad getting reprimanded for crying while watching Coco (real). I did like the messaging about autonomy/writing your own story + accepting help from reliable sources as needed

I’m enjoying the humor & wit of this so far! Zinnia is a unique, pretty name. I think the concept of being sucked into a fairy tale that loosely resembles your own life is interesting!
