review 1: Take one of the most beloved fairy tales in the English language, add it to one of my favorite TV shows of the last several seasons and you get....a huge disappointment. This could have been fun. It could have been scary. It could have been entertaining. Instead it was predictable, flat and frankly, stupid. Using her cell-phone as the mirror? It texts her that she is the fairest? Give me a break! The take on the Evil queen felt like a sad, pathetic bid to be "relevant." The writing was insipid. Everything about this book screamed, "Let's make a buck while the show is still popular." So disappointing. If anything about the book could have had a spark of what makes the TV show good, I would have been a big fan. The only thing I enjoyed about it was that it only ... moretook me an hour to read it.
review 2: Entertaining, but nothing to write home about. Read time - 3.5 hours mostly during commercial breaks.Again, several pages were directly taken from the previous book, which were taken from book number 1. Unnecessarily repetitive and un-creative.This book takes place three years after the last book, a giant leap forwards in the development of the character. His companion is almost non-existent and he's suddenly in love? Confusing to say the least. I get very tired of hearing about how Jake reads/has read "the will" over and over including all the indexes and appendices and yadda yadda yadda!The actual fairytale part has a nice, modern day twist. A whole new meaning to the phrase "evil queen" and it was nice the "snow white" was not pale skinned, with black hair and red lips.It was easy to read, but not as much fun as the other two and not as well written either. less
