11 year old daughter loved it

Plot twists, mysteries and magical elements made for a real page turner for my 11 year old book worm.

Debut Middle Grade Book

This is a Debut Middle Grade Book, and this is the first book in the Sisters Ever After Book series. This is a Sleeping Beauty retelling. This book is told from the point of view of Briony who is the sister of the very pretty Princess that is going to sleep from 100 years. I really enjoyed this book, and I found this story fun to read. This was a short middle grade book, but I found it to be well-written. This book was a super quick read from me. There was a couple of twists in this book, and I found both of the twist to be really well done. I did not see either of the twist coming, but after knowing what they are I can see some people seeing them coming. I receive an ARC of this book. This review is my own honest opinion about the book like all my reviews are.
