Princess Floralinda and the Forty-Flight Tower, by Tamsyn Muir
Huh. I'm not quite sure what I was expecting from this novella, except that I expected it to be something I wasn't expecting bc it's Tamsyn Muir of Locked Tomb fame, but it still isn't quite what I was expecting!
Anyway it's a story about the fairy tale trope of a princess who's locked in a tower by a witch, and her efforts to be freed.
It's also about the. relationship???? between Floralinda (the princess) and Cobweb (a fairy, who hates her and also helps her). and about growth and change and potential and becoming a different kind of person.
It's odd and surprisingly emotionally affecting and I was very into it.
