review 1: I think that I expected too much of Snow White in this story. So in that aspect I was a bit disappointed. (Cinderella is Snow White's aunt? What?) But the rest of the book was good. I liked the characters, I liked the religious twist and beliefs, and I liked how things didn't always wrap up nicely with a bow on top. All of my senses were involved with this book. I had to let go of what I thought it would be and get sucked in to what it truly was. Entertaining. I look forward to the next book so that I can take the "Snow White" label off or, perhaps, figure out how it all comes together.
review 2: I won this on a Goodreads First-Reads giveaway and am so happy I read it.Firstly, the cover is gorgeous.This was a really fast and entertaining read. There was... more never a boring mon=ment; there was always something happening. The author wrote an awesome tale that I consider kind of dytopian and intertwined classical fairy tales into the story. Addie, the main character seeks vengeance against the priest, Father Soren, who abuses his power on the population. So the village make a revolution, fighting to gain the rights they never fully possessed. At first, we see a very angry, sad and vulnerable side of the protagonist since her mother just died and they can't make a proper funeral for her. During the rest of the tale,you discover that Addie, while being brave and strong-willed, she is also sweet and innocent. Yet, she was determined to sacrifice all to fight for what she believed was right. I adored her best friend/love interest; Ivo. He's pretty awesomeThe world they're living in was pretty interesting, loved the feel of historical fiction and the way they made a living. It was pretty old-fashioned lifestyle, which is cool. I wouldn't really call the book a re-telling of fairytales. It was more bringing back fairytale characters' traits into these characters and making them relate very strongly. This actually, made me like fairytale more. The writing was nice and fairytale like. Can't wait for the second book. less
