About This Quote
Aurora is a princess in the fairytale, The Snow Queen. She has been betrothed to a prince for many years. But, she has grown tired of waiting for him to finally come. She wants to go out and meet other boys and find love herself.
When I read this book, I was hooked by the beauty of the writing. When I read the last sentence, I was shocked to hear how it ended. This is because this author did not hold back on the ending of the story.
This made me feel that this story was not over yet because it could be continued. Aurora looks into the mirror herself and she sees herself as someone who cannot be happy with what she has been given in life. Aurora is not happy with her betrothed prince so she starts to look for love in all sorts of places.
She looks in mirrors and also in books where she sees people who are better than she is in every way possible. As part of her task in looking for true love, Aurora goes to a ball where she meets many handsome suitors that catch her interest.
