"A vivid, subversive, and feminist reimagining of Sleeping Beauty, where implacable destiny is no match for courage, sisterhood, stubbornness, and a good working knowledge of fairy tales." -Katherine Arden, bestselling author of the Winternight trilogy, on A Spindle Splintered

"An exceptional heroine, smart writing, and a winning plot." -Nancy Pearl, on A Spindle Splintered

"A lively, engaging fairy-tale retelling perfect for devouring in a single sitting." -Kirkus Reviews, on A Mirror Mended

"It's funny, sharp, queer, and deeply loves its source material...This novella pushes against the hopelessness of inevitability; it dares us to believe in sympathetic magic; it tells us we're connected through story. It might dent your heart a little, but it's good fun." -NPR, on A Spindle Splintered

"Like Into the Spider-Verse for Disney princesses, A Spindle Splintered is a delightful mash-up featuring Alix E. Harrow's trademark beautiful prose and whip-smart characters." -Mike Chen, author of Here and Now and Then

"A wonderfully imaginative, and Queer as hell, tale for those who wish to be the authors of their own stories." -Kalynn Bayron, author of Cinderella is Dead, on A Spindle Splintered
