As a fan of Alex Flinn's fairytale re-tellings, especially Beastly, I was anticipating this novel greatly. It was a unique take on the Snow White tale's Queen, Huntsman, Prince and happily ever after. As the story of Snow White is pretty well known, there's not much I can say without giving away how this re-telling decided to approach the story. Definitely recommended for those who enjoy fairy tales and happily ever afters.

I read this novel in anticipation of the television series that came out last year. I liked it a lot, until the end. The end was kind of lame with the whole, happily ever after situation, and I was glad the end was changed in the tv series.

What a beautiful ending to a seemingly tragic story. I was happy to see Lauren finally get her happily ever after. Her journey was an emotional one, filled with turmoil and heart ache, but she got the love she deserved. Honestly, the only thing I was even remotely disappointed about was the lack of Cal's personality Chris kept. What's that say about me?! Thankfully Lauren was able to get through to Cal before he ruined everyone's lives - the truth behind what happened was so awful and sick, I can't completely fault him for repressing it. It's nice to know that Lauren and Chris, along with Cal and sometimes Collin, will live happily ever after with Caylen.

A fun picture book take on fairytales, this one starts at "Happily ever after" and works back to "Once Upon a Time." Along the way, we get some surprises and laughs. Highly recommended.

Fake it till you make it and let your nerd flag fly. This book is everything a nerdy bookish girl could ever dream of. The plot is simple but for anyone who dreams of a nerdy happily ever after this is a one sitting read. References to popular book stores and fandoms make it that much more enjoyable.

Thank you for giving me the opportunity to read this and review.

There are few books in this world that stay with you long after you finish reading it. I still think about the Lion Tamer Who Lost six months later. It is beautiful storytelling, heartbreaking and sincere. I would recommend this to anyone who loves romance and how the real world is not all happily ever afters.

The Grimm's Brothers stories are not all rainbows and happily ever after. Some are downright dark. Its always nice to read things that you think you know the story of and realize that you didn't get the whole story.
For a fantastical dark witty and baffling time the grimms stories are there for you.
How could they put all those dresses into walnut shells?
  
A friends who are in love with each other but deny it book. As with books like this there is a feel good ending that makes you smile. The plot is fluffy and well known but it doesn't matter. The characters are perfect for each other and you can't wait for the happily ever after.
A perfect read for a anyone who wants something cute, happy, and just plain adorable.
