Synopsis

What is a maiden to do when her prince is not a prince, her hair won’t stop growing, and someone has cursed her to sleep for 300 years?In Polyhymnia’s case, it seems expedient to get up with the help of a kiss or two, trailing her hair behind her, and find out who did it. Nothing quite works out as planned, however, and Poly can’t be sure if that’s because she never seems to be able to remember things like the mysterious spindle that keeps showing up around her, or if it’s the fault of the wizard who woke her but never stops long enough to explain anything.Poly is determined in two things: One, that she will find out who cursed her to sleep and meddled with her memories. Two: that she will absolutely not fall in love with the irritating wizard who seems to need to keep kissing her back into the real world…

Are you sitting down? Make sure you're sitting down. I'm going to say something a little crazy. You ready? Good. Here goes: This reminds me of Howl's Moving Castle more than any other book I've read, and it's almost as good. (Note to Deborah O'Carroll, if she happens to see this: READ THIS BOOK.

Goodreads review by Tressa on October 17, 2015

I think I just found a new favorite author. I loved Spindle that much! I've been thinking about how to put into words this crazy, eccentric, magical, steady roller-coaster (yep, those two descriptors don't make sense when you read them like that, but if you read this story you would understand) stor......more

reread 11/23/2021: So I really, really like this book, you guys. (Hence the reread.)
