In the continuation of Chanda Hahn's Unfortunate Fairy Tale series, this book tackles the story of Snow White (among other things). It's interesting how Chanda has integrated fairy tales into a completely unique story. And Mina has a lot of lessons to learn (which means she doesn't always get to be the hero of the tale). I know a lot of reviewers complained she was moody, but I felt like she very much acted her age, and yes, there was some moody behavior, but it fit her and the story. Overall, I'm loving the series and it very much holds up to what I remembered about how fun it was. I highly recommend it to fairy tale lovers. Also, the narrator does a fabulous job voicing all the characters. Not as good as the first book. The writing level is the same so expect the same grammatical issues and typos as well as very simplistic writing. The characters are the same shallow caricatures as the first book as well. But the thing that really stood out for me in the first book was the cool retelling of fairy tales, which this book lacked. The retelling was very simplistic and predictable in this book. The whole thing just wasn't as imaginative as in book one. Sense ressenyes | afegeix-hi una ressenya

Mina Grime discovers that all is not fair when it comes to the Fae and their tales, especially when they don't all play by the rules. Barely surviving the Story's first fairy tale quest, Mina still has hundreds to go before she can end the curse on her family. But a new player arises to challenge Mina while new rules revamp the game she has just barely begun to understand. All the while, people are mysteriously disappearing, including Jared, whom Mina must finally determine to be friend or foe. And with the loss of her greatest weapon, Mina must try to outwit a lethal hunter. Can Mina survive the most difficult quest yet while protecting those she loves from falling victim to one of the deadliest tales of all? Or will she become a pawn when she strikes a bargain with the Queen of Fae? No s'han trobat descripcions de biblioteca. |

Mina has had a hard couple of months since she found out her family history, started her Grimm quests and finally had her crush on Brody Carmichael reciprocated before the Story took it all away and rewrote everyone's memories.
Like the first book, this is perfect for younger teens featuring a variety of fractured fairy tales with some amusing changes. Like the three bears being Chicago Bears. The story moves at a rapid clip and has lots of action, drama and entertainment.
Mina is a super relatable character. She's likable and heartfelt and often quite funny. Even if she doesn't mean to be. I felt really sorry for her though. Being sixteen is hard enough without the nightmare of her first boyfriend completely forgetting her. Although Mina struggles with her feelings I liked that she did try to be mature about it all - even if she did make a few mistakes along the way.
I completely understood her feelings about Jared though. His constant hot and cold was maddening. I wanted to just shake him myself to get some answers. It was annoying all the Fae judging Mina for failing when they refused to give her any actual information.
I was impressed though with her deductions about who Jared actually is
A fun and entertaining fractured fairy tale with a great main character. 4 stars. ( )
