OverviewWritten in a style that sweeps you up with it's familiarity, this book weaves its life lessons between lavish description and poignant narrative. Buckle in, because once you've hopped on Allora's roller coaster of a life you won't want to get off. Allora never questioned that she was a princess. After all, her daddy gave her everything she wanted, her mother was beautiful and loved her so much, and they lived in a beautiful house. She danced every day in the sunshine of Southern California and everything was wonderful. Except for the fact that this was the 1980s and not some once upon a time. When a family tragedy leaves a blank in her memory and a mess of physical ailments, Allora begins to question who she really is. In this book, all the ghosts and fairies and magic of the world is real. But none of them can save Allora from her life or from herself. A coming of age story for a world that has lost its rights of passage, this book is part fairy tale, part philosophy, and part recipe for gaining agency in life. It will sweep you up in the language of loss and love, spin you through a modern day circus, and land you squarely back on your feet, wanting to do the work to be more than the person you thought you were.
