The writer really draws you into the world she's created. The characters have great depth and development, you really do grow so find of them.The main character, maia, is very strong willed - I just love a strong female MC. She grows so much as a person along this journey, and it's beautiful to see. The story building is amazing, it isn't overly fast paced, but it isn't too slow either - it's enough to draw you in and keep you there.There are aspects of slow burn romance in this book, and it is done in such a tasteful way. The romance portion of this story takes off more in the second book.

I am always interested in fairy tale retelling and was not disappointed in this one (which is not always the case). The heroine is believably complex and focused on her passion. Her developing relationship with the sorcerer is well-paced, and the magical elements fit into the described world.

Book Introduction:This is the debut novel of Elizabeth Lim. The book is a fairy-tale retelling of the celebrated Disney movie – Mulan where she meets Aladdin and they dive in to the world of Devil wears Prada! Maia, the youngest child of her family - is a seamstress. She wants to be known as the best tailor in the land of A’landi. One day the opportunity knocks at her door for the same. But, it came with a challenge! Now, she is stuck in a situation of saving her family’s reputation or saving her life. What will she choose to do?My Feelings on Reading this book:This book has it all – fantasy, mystery, romance, thrill and MAGIC! It has a completely unexpected story line, different from the many fantasy books I have read. I was surprised by the pace of the book – such a fast paced book still it is so calm and all set to make you fall in love with it. The book has an Asian / Oriental vibe to it. I loved tiny hints of romance which is so tastefully written. I loved how strong willed Maia was and how she never gave up on any situation whatsoever and fought with everything she had in her arsenal. She was a character - worthy of all the appreciation. The character arc of Edan was beautiful as well. The words are woven in such a subtle manner. I could not get enough of this book. The mystery and thrill is crafted fluently and I was just hooked to it till the very end. I was not feeling bore at all. I was connected to the characters in every way. I felt like the book should open a portal for me to dive in. It will always hold a space in my heart forever. It ends with a cliff hanger and I am so thankful that I have the other book ready on my shelves to dive in as soon as I can.Recommended to:- YA lovers.- People who want to explore the world of fantasy – you can definitely start with this.- People who wish to read about Magic, or witchy stuff or want some subtle thrillers.
