Here’s a draft review of Once Upon a Broken Heart by Stephanie Garber, structured for clarity and impact. You can adjust the tone (more casual, more academic, or spoiler-heavy) as needed. Rating: ★★★★☆ (4/5) – Magical, but maddening in the best way

Once Upon a Broken Heart is the first in a spin-off series from Garber’s Caraval trilogy. It follows Evangeline Fox, a hopeless romantic who makes a desperate deal with the immortal Prince of Hearts (Jacks) to stop her true love from marrying another. The cost? Her first kiss after the deal is his to claim. What follows is a glittering, treacherous journey through curses, betrayal, and shifting loyalties. Once Upon a Broken Heart
