I read this for a book club and I don't have much to say about it. I did love how the author handled polyamory. I felt there was a missed opportunity in regards to dealing with the magical side of the plot but then it probably wouldn’t lead to a sequel. I didn’t click with the characters as they sounded like college kids instead of adults in their mid to late 20s.

I got this because of Djinn in the title. So disappointed it played so little role in this story. So much so, if the Djinn was removed completely, it would not have affected the story at all. Other than that the story was fine and well written.

This is for the audio book. I'm loving this series and this one is no exception. The extra cats are always a bonus. Love the story and the characters.

Thank you NetGalley for this pre-published version.
It was an enjoyable read and reminded me of so many old (pre 1960s) movies I used to watch; suspense psychological thriller. I don’t have much to say about the characters, they just are. I didn’t go in with any expectations except the hope to enjoy it and that was met. While others might see the twist at the end with the husband, I didn’t. The story kept me reading to the finish.

How this 180 year old story became the inspiration for Frozen, I’ll never know. Aside for the winter theme, there is no relation at all. The religious aspect should definitely be mentioned as not everyone is interested in reading / listening to it.
I have nothing to say about this story other than I have listened to it and I won’t be reading it again. There is nothing wrong with it but it’s definitely a fairytale for kids and it is religious when that aspect is mentioned.

Thank you NetGalley for this pre-published version. I would have given this 3 stars but the ‘c’ word threw me out of the story. Geez, I hate that word. There is nothing wrong with this story, it just didn’t grab me. Other readers might enjoy this but it just isn’t for me.
