It hurts, but I can bear it. Because I am a doll, and a servant. Because I am a pretty thing and a soldier all the same.
I wish it was longer 😢
Per ora non so che voto dargli. È cosi breve che sembra quasi eterea questa novella. In più di quello che racconta mi ha interessato solo la parte iniziale e finale dov'era presente anche il Darkling. La regina poteva essere bella, brutta, antipatica (e lo è) ma non mi ha per niente coinvolto.
An amazing short story that's literally even better than the whole first book. Genya is a character who holds a special place in my heart and I freaking LOVE her. She was amazing both in the books and the show and this short story made me love her even more. I've always wanted to see things from her point of view and having that opportunity here was absolutely great. We learn more about Genya's daily life as a tailor. Seeing what she went through was heartbreaking. She was loved and cared for but then suddenly cast aside, as if she had no value beyond her talent as a tailor. The queen, who was supposed to protect her, changed her mind because of anger towards someone else entirely. She decided that Genya was worthless, except for her skills in tailoring. However, despite his dark nature, the Darkling took care of her. He made her feel less alone, understood, and more important. That made me like him a bit more. This story is a precious gem that will stay with me and is a beautiful example of Leigh's storytelling talent and how she brings her characters to life.
