About this listen

An instant Indie best seller!

Sleeping Beauty meets Indiana Jones in this thrilling fairy-tale retelling for fans of Sorcery of Thorns and The Cruel Prince.

Fi is a bookish treasure hunter with a knack for ruins and riddles who definitely doesn’t believe in true love.

Shane is a tough-as-dirt girl warrior from the north who likes cracking skulls, pretty girls, and doing things her own way.

Briar Rose is a prince under a sleeping curse who’s been waiting a hundred years for the kiss that will wake him.

Cursed princes are nothing but ancient history to Fi - until she pricks her finger on a bone spindle while exploring a long-lost ruin. Now she’s stuck with the spirit of Briar Rose until she and Shane can break the century-old curse on his kingdom.

Dark magic, witch hunters, and bad exes all stand in her way - not to mention a mysterious witch who might wind up stealing Shane’s heart, along with whatever else she’s after. But nothing scares Fi more than the possibility of falling in love with Briar Rose.

Set in a lush world inspired by beloved fairy tales, The Bone Spindle is a fast-paced young-adult fantasy full of adventure, romance, found family, and snark.

I finished this book in three days

The ride was fun and intense and i cant wait to use my next credit for the second book, i love how this these character talk with one another because this book has great banter i was laughing right along with these guys

The multiple points of view was great with giving a lot of insight into the history of the world making me wanna know more. I cant wait to read the next one, i love fairytales so this was perfect for me by adding more depth and making it an awesome reimaging

Overall:

LOVED IT!! MY HEART WAS BEATING THE WHOLE TIME GOING THROUGH THIS EMOTIONAL ROLLER COSTER<3
