We had some mixed reviews for this one; Alex loved it and Sam thought it was okay. But that led to some interesting discussions on what worked/what didn't for us individually, where we would have liked more or less information, internalized standards of beauty, and how people always view 'villains' as ugly/weird/fat/disfigured, where we think book 2 will go, and more.
