The Prince and the Dressmaker by Jen Wang

Rating: ⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

Frances is a young seamstresses who aspires to be a fashion designer someday. Her work goes unappreciated, resulting in negative blowback from her boss. Sought out for her skills by someone wanting a personal seamstress, her spirits are revived. However, Frances gets the surprise of a lifetime when she finds out her employer, Prince Sebastian, is not everything she thought him to be...he is so much more. 

Now I am not a fan of graphic novels, but this book was fantastic. First, I need to give mad props to Jen Wang for creating a work of art as beautiful as the story itself. The drawings were vibrant and imaginative. They completely bolstered the words of the story. The unique identities created and explored for the characters in this masterpiece are contemporary and edgy. A fast read, but engaging and heartwarming nonetheless.
