In this book, Miss Mitchelmore finds herself under a curse. She teams up with her best friends and an alluring but disgraced noblewoman to beat the curse and survive the aftermath. I was disappointed in this book! It lacked what I like best in Alexis Hall's books, which is a really strong emotional tie to the characters. I think this was because of the unusual choice of having the narrator be a Puck-like sprite, rather than first person or general third. The narrator was just watching the characters for fun and didn't connect deeply with them, so neither did I. I like the idea of having a sprite narrate in theory, but perhaps we just needed one who cared and/or understood the emotions of the characters. The characters were fine, especially our main character's best friend, and the book was amusing, it just didn't give me that emotional punch I hope for in an Alexis Hall book.
