I toyed with the 3.5 stars but I'm going with 4 stars just because of the John Hughes references.The blurb What happens when you’re the ugly stepsister and your obnoxiously perfect—read pretty, smart, and, worst of all, sickeningly nice—stepsister is dating the charming, tall, devastatingly handsome...
Really 1.5 To see full review click here.My sister had a conversation that revolved around a book the other day. Here's how it went.Sister: You should really read this book.Me: I'm tired of fairytale retellings. That Alex Flinn Rapunzel retelling just about killed me. Sister: Well, this isn't re...
The Ugly Stepsister Strikes Back is another indie gem I ran across while trawling through Amazon's "... also viewed" lists looking for my next indie read.
