Mirabelle has been raised by her extremely overprotective guardians, knowing that her parents died in a fire on the night of her christening. She desperately wants answers about her parents and her background, but her two guardians are none too forthcoming, and so Mira feels she has no choice but to...
This wasn't bad, but I was kind of hoping for more. It was an idea I have always loved and I always just jump on: a fairy tale universe that is part of our own world, with all of the knowledge that comes from that. Fairy tale characters that know their stories? I am absolutely there every time the...
Because I read so many fairy tale retellings, this one kept coming up, and I kept ignoring it, seeing those magic, off-putting words (or so I thought ): "A modern reimagining." Ugh, no thank you! How could that possibly be as creative, as fun, as a fantasy world? I had visions of Once Upon a Time da...
Fairytales are one of my favorite things, but fairytale mashups, or "broken" fairytales, are even cooler! I recently read and loved STITCHING SNOW (by RC Lewis), as well as CINDER and the entire series by Marissa Meyer. I think readers who loved those will love TEAR YOU APART.It starts out with our ...
I really enjoyed this book and I have not read the first one. I didn't realize it was part of a series. Though, its not 100% necessary to read book one, I'd probably have a better understanding of why these curses exist in the first place. Vivian has always known she had Snow White's curse. With ...
Mirabelle's 16th birthday is coming up, but she still has no idea how to live.Her guardians have forbidden almost everything in her life, so she is not really living at all.Everything from going out with friends and having a boyfriend to simple things like shaving her legs and watching television ar...
Disclaimer: I recieved an digital review copy via Netgalley this did not change or influence my opinion of this book. I’m a huge fan of Snow White. When done right. Unfortunately, more often than not the fairytale gets sort of short sided (cough, having a movie with you’re starring character bei...
I love the little town of Beau Rivage. You never know what to expect or what is going to happen to any particular person.I didn’t care for Viv in Kill Me Softly. She seemed like an awful person. She doesn’t seem much better at the beginning of Tear You Apart, but there are definitely reasons for her...
I got drawn in by the pretty cover. Too bad the story couldn't keep my interest. *sigh*Like a mash up of Grime, Once Upon a Time, and True Blood, as promised by the book summary. Too bad the story fails in the execution. I didn't realize it was the second book in a series, though it didn't feel like...
3.5 stars This was the first fairy tale re-telling I've ever read. This book exceeded my expectations. I really enjoyed the modern twist on Snow White and how other fairy tales were woven into the story. At times I found the writing a bit comical. This story has really peaked my interest in the Grim...
