And another retelling of a classic fairytale.
Rosa only wanted to keep her seven foster brothers happy and avoid awkward situations with the hottest guy in school. What she didn’t mean to do was turn invisible. Life gets more complicated when her stepmom shows up and asks her to come live with her. Having a family is all Rosa’s ever wanted, but when she begins to have dreams that come true, she can’t justify leaving. Just when she thinks she’s all alone, a strange girl from California shows up and tells her she's the girl prophesied about in the fairytale, Snow White. But the story left out the fact that the princess had superpowers. When she discovers she not the only one with magic, she must decided to trust these strangers to save her loved ones or keep her secret hidden and try to rescue them herself.
My review:
This was another excellent retelling and modernizing of the classic fairytale. What I love about this series is that they have elements of the fairytales, but they are completely their own story. It was nice to see Rosa as a strong character with flaws that she learned to overcome and worked to change. I loved her loyalty to her boys, even though they weren't always nice to her. The romance with Forrest was okay. I didn't feel the chemistry as much as I did in the last book, but it was still there and still enjoyable. It's nice having clean, YA that has some of the excitement and action of other series without all the smut. Great book!!!
