Conosciamo tutti la favola di Biancaneve. Una cosa che però non sapevo, è che la versione originale, non è quella della Disney ma quella dei fratelli Grimm. Pare (non avendola letta non posso essere sicura) sia ben diversa dalla favola melensa a cui siamo abituati, così effettivamente, posso capi...
A bit of a twist on the "Snow White" fairy tale. She plays a much more active role in fighting against the Evil Queen, and the true love's kiss that wakes her from the queen's curse doesn't come from a prince, or even the duke's son with whom she is reunited. It's definitely much better than th...
3/5 stars :) I've always liked Disney's Snow White and the 7 dwarfs :) It was one of my favorite movies since I was a little kid :) So when I saw this book, I just had to get it and read it!!! So I did and I liked it, it wasn't AMAZING!!! or that I absolutely didn't like it, it was just eh. The b...
2.5 starsThe rule is READ THE BOOK BEFORE YOU WATCH THE MOVIE.That means, the book has to be written before the movie script.This isn't here,Which is a big let down.This is so clearly the book from a movie It's almost annoying.You only read what you watch on the screen,No extra details.Though, I ...

I like the grim, medieval setting of the story and the fierce character of...
Lo primero que hay que decir, que si bien esta novela (que a su vez está basada en la película producida por Universal Pictures) mantiene ciertos parámetros similares al cuento clásico de Blancanieves, contiene grandes alteraciones. Segundo, que la edición es divina: contiene ilustraciones y un d...
This book was really interesting, disturbing but interesting. Elissa was a good female protagonist, Ryan scared the crap out of me, and Elissa's mom gave a good moral to the story. There were lots of family struggles and problems, as well as problem with drugs and substance abuse. But overall the...
I was really looking forward to reading this book. I searched everywhere for it for a month! My local bookstore had sold out and my library system didn't have the book, so I had to resort to SearchOhio, which found the book from a different county and allowed me to check it out.Anyway, when I hea...
Well, reading this book I didn't have too many high hopes considering that it's a novel adapted from the film. Surprisingly, it wasn't too bad. I was dying to see the movie with the wonderful Jennifer Lawrence, but I just couldn't without reading the book first. Elissa and her mother, Sarah, are...
