Perfect for teenage Disney fans, both those who like villains and those who like princesses.

I’m loving this coming-of-age book about a girl who’s determined to give everyone else a happily ever after, all while avoiding her own grief. It’s funny and fresh, with a cute romance at the heart of it!

After her mom died and her sister’s awkward, haphazard quinceañera, Castillo Torres discovers a passion for planning the perfect party. After an influencer misunderstands and thinks she’s already working at her dream party planning firm, Castillo finds herself planning an edgy, deconstructed quince for Paulina, whose aesthetic resembles that of a Sith Lord. But the party’s a publicity stunt, and Cas and her sister Po find themselves pulled in different directions as the lies grow. Po has instant chemistry with Paulina, while Cas finds herself falling for Paulina’s date, Javi.

Po’s adorable as a teen who finds a lipstick color for every mood – coral for courage, purple for a good mood, and red for a bad mood. Paulina’s intriguing as a Disney vlogger who prefers villain aesthetics. Javi’s a sweetheart who has great banter with Cas and is up for anything, as long as she’s there too.

Set against the background of Disneyland, this book has a lot to say about what goes into making memories magic. It also shows how grief can make a person forget about their own Happily Ever after.

Thank you to the publisher for the advance review copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
