This first half of the book was pretty amazing, and held so much potential! And then ... it just got weird and foundered and sank. I think the author was trying to cram every single fairy tale into one story - it just got too confusing and too lame. If she would have just stuck to one concept - the Frog Prince - things would have turned out much, much better.
Also, all the characters, with their odd names, made it that much more confusing.
I was so sad when this book ended, because so much was left wanting - a fabulous idea destroyed in the execution.
