What a great story. It has some intrigue without being so complicated and drawn out that you have to be fully focused. It's great for multitasking people that love a good story or someone that wants to relax not just physically but also mentally and sil be entertained.

Fluff
Disneyfied wish fulfillment. Formulaic, as fairy tales usually are, but lacks spark to make it entertaining.
Instead read 'Fly by Night' by Frances Hardinge, where young woman takes charge of her fate, with a goose and sly humor.
