A Spindle Splintered

A Spindle Splintered by Alix E. Harrow, 119 pages

Zinnia has lived her entire life waiting for her looming premature death. Born with a degenerative disease caused by environmental toxins, she's known that her time is limited. On her 21st birthday, a Sleeping Beauty-themed party goes a bit askew, vaulting Zinnia into another world, with another young woman with a curse hanging over her head. Now she has to help this princess escape her fate while trying to get home.

This is described in the book and elsewhere as "Sleeping Beauty gets Spider-versed" and that's completely accurate. What that doesn't cover, however, is how fun and funny this girl-powered story is. I absolutely loved it and I'm definitely going to be recommending the heck out of this.
