A scrappy maid must outsmart both palace nobles and gods in this laugh-out-loud, lush and lively young adult fantasy retelling of The Goose Girl.
Once upon a time, there was a beautiful, kind princess, and her wicked maid.
One day, the wicked maid stole the princess's face, and with it her name, her betrothed - everything. The princess had to toil away as a servant, while her maid lived like a queen.
When the maid was caught, she died for her crimes, and the princess lived happily ever after . . . or that is how the story has been told.
Now, it's time to hear the other side of the story . . .
Readers Love Margaret Owen
'I dont think I can accurately review this book, because I really loved it so much and I feel like I wont be doing it justice! Did I cry? Yes, I did. Was it the first time in a long time that I have cried over a book? Also yes. But please, please, PLEASE, buy a copy of it, and make you own opinion. And I really hope you'll love it as much as I did! I am now gonna go stare at a wall, empty, being crushed under the weight of the book hangover' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
'There's so many tropes in here that, like me, I know you'll love. If you love High Fantasy, you'll adore this. There is also fantastic LGBTQIA+ representation' ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
