Please join Trinity and I for the read.

I am excited to read my second Alex Flinn book as I enjoyed Beastly very much.

I can't wait to start this one!

yay! I'm in!

I'm through the intro. Yikes, that was long! LOL!

and (view spoiler)[ it was filled with a couple different fair tale ideas. I liked it! (hide spoiler)]

be interesting to see where this goes from here... :)

okay I'm through part 1

so far it's okay - nit really wowing me

Emma (view spoiler)[ ugh. I hope she gets even (hide spoiler)]

lisette (view spoiler)[ yeah she and the whole gang of girls all suck..... (hide spoiler)]

I hope Kendra helps out :)

I'm through part II

Mermaid story (view spoiler)[ bleh. I think these side stories are just distracting me (hide spoiler)]

Lisette (view spoiler)[ it's hard to see her winning so much. I hope part III is where Emma finally gets a win or two. (hide spoiler)]

Emma (view spoiler)[ just seems annoying and helpless right now. honestly, she can actually do something instead of just watching everything happen to her (hide spoiler)]

Warner (view spoiler)[ bleh. I kind of don't like him right now
I mean who says they "love you" and then won't even ask about what's going on, just runs to another woman.
bag him. he's not worth it (hide spoiler)]

I am through the intro and halfway through part 1.

I really liked the intro but was disappointed when part one started. I thought the whole book was (view spoiler)[ going to be about Kendra. Turns out it is Cinderella. (hide spoiler)]

WELL....actually, lol

it's a re-telling about A LOT of fairytales....but yeah ,I thought it would be Kendra's story too!! (it's not)

Hmm...that is disappointing indeed.

It would have been nice for it to stick to the story in the intro instead of hopping around so much.

Done part two, in the middle of the mermaid story.

While it is nice to read these little stories I feel they would be better suited to a novella.

(view spoiler)[I wish Lisette were not an evil witch and that her and Emma could have been like sisters but then I suppose there wouldn't be a story. Can't wait for Kendra to cast a spell and put Lisette in her place. (hide spoiler)]

Finished.

I would have rated it lower but I was happy with the ending and really loved the beginning. Everything in between was just ugh...

Too much jumping around.

I totally agree!!! SO MUCH JUMPING!!! I just wanted one story. I got totally lost in the side stories and the jumbles.

I'm glad you at least enjoyed parts of it! LOL!

Congrats on another one read! WOOHOOO!! :D
