Been reading Fairest of All by Serena Valentino

 

Hello Bookies,

The wheel has selected another book. This one has been on my list for a long time and it's about time I read about it. This is a story based off the stepmother of Snow White. I probably won't cover too much about this series since we all know the fairytales and these books are just the back stories of the villains in those fairytales. Also I won't isolate these posts to be under their own page. Just a warning. Anyway in this one, Snow White's stepmother was a peasant who was the daughter of a famed mirror maker that the king fell in love with. We learn that the stepmother's father wasn't a kind man and thought that she somehow enchanted the king in order to marry him. And, it even appears that in death the woman is not safe because every mirror that is gifted to her has her father's face in it, taunting her. I pretty much took a break to write this post after the king has tragically died in battle. I will not update you on how this book ends but I can assume that due to the king's death, that is the reason why she suddenly became so evil. Right now she has just been a loving mother to Snow White, but we know the fairytale because she becomes the evil queen some how. 

So until next time...
