Now we know why twitter shouldn’t write novels. Katherine Kellgren was the Narrator, and she needs much more direction, and maybe some lessons from Xe Sands on how to narrate. She was mostly shrill, and her voices were silly. 2.5 stars, and not recommended to anyone. I didn't know going in that this was (more or less) a story written in tweets by a group of people, but I could have guessed by reading it. Things happen haphazardly and too quickly. So sure, maybe a better story than one might expect when written by crowdsourcing, but still not really worth your time. This story may have been fun to read as it was developed, line-by-line, in the Twitterverse. It has a Gaiman-like feel of creepiness and unease but the story isn't terribly well-crafted. Katherine Kellgren's narration is always a welcome addition to any audiobook but this simply isn't a genre I enjoy. I loved this story! This was a neat little fairytale retold at least that’s what it felt like to me. It has shades of Alice in Wonderland in fact there is a cute little epilogue I enjoyed too. I don’t want to say too much since it is a short story I don’t want to give anything away to detract from enjoying this one! I must say that I am a Neil Gaiman fan and a Katherine Kellgren fan but I think even if I wasn’t I would have enjoyed this story! This audiobook is only an hour and forty-five minutes long and well worth the $1.95 audible is charging. 4 1/2stars Zeige 5 von 5 keine Rezensionen | Rezension hinzufügen

An epic tale of imaginary lands, magical objects, haunting melodies, plucky sidekicks, menacing villains, and much more. From mystical blue roses to enchanted mirrors to pesky puppets, this classic fable was born from the collective creativity of more than one hundred contributors via the social network Twitter in a groundbreaking literary experiment.

I definitely couldn't help feeling intrigued about this book based just on the fact it was written "with the Twitterverse," as a telephone version of novella. The whole notion delights me. This whole story was sideways and reminded me of Labyrinth, Neverwhere, and Books of Magic/Vertigo type worlds where things are always what they don't appear and almost nothing is what it seems.
Not world-shattering, but a fun, zany read nonetheless. ( )
