The book is written with historical precision and emotional depth, educating the reader while conjuring a number of feelings! Although I was not pulled in immediately, I did soon find myself completely entranced by Gabe and Rose‘s story, hoping for the best through both laughter and tears. My favorite part of the book involved a girl named Angelina, but the entire story is a touching one.

Do you have any friends who are authors? I have a few, including the creative and intelligent T.E. Elliott, who wrote the beautiful Loved By the Beast fairytale retelling that I adored last year, along with this new release, Service and Slumber! I‘ve been looking forward to the latest installment in her series for a while! I‘m grateful for my review copy and can‘t wait to see where this Sleeping Beauty retelling goes!

I really enjoyed this book and found it difficult to set down. The influence of various versions is clear throughout the book, although the tale in this is highly original and more meaningful than any of the others that I have read.
