- RznRoyal Road★★★★ 3.5This story opens with a lot of purple prose and Daphne's reasons for going to the Witch is unclear. The first odd thing was the imbalance in the flowery prose in the beginning that is not carried through. Also, the book goes from said to wail - does it talk?! The story does not make a lot of sense and has some odd imagery that doesn't make a lot of sense. Then comes the interaction with Daphne and the witch and Daphne despite everything is unprepared and has no will. The story concludes oddly and it feels unresolved.
