"Cora is headstrong, adventurous, and utterly charming, and she provides a compelling role model for young girls; there are brief flashes of insight in which she examines her class privilege. Sneed perfectly captures the sibling dynamic between her and her brothers as well, and the cast of Cora’s unexpected allies adds depth and levity.

A captivating fairytale adaptation that may appeal to fans of the work of Gail Carson Levine and Patricia C. Wrede." - Kirkus Reviews
