Series ✦ Penny’s Take
Queen of Snow
Jessie Cal · 2021
65/100
👎 Skip It
A breezy, clean fairy-tale mashup that blends the Snow Queen and Jack Frost with genuine creative flair, but thin world-building and uneven pacing keep it from landing with real weight. It is a comfortable one-session read for early YA fans of sweet romance, but readers who want depth alongside the fun will leave wanting more. Fine for its niche, but not a standout in a crowded field.
