I'm a Pajiaban. I like reading. A LOT. My fiancé weirdly agreed to move in with me even after he found out I come with over 600 books. This seemed like a natural next step.

I was delighted when she ventured into fantasy, especially fairy tale rewrites. Her first attempt- Stepsister (what happens to the so-called wicked stepsisters of Cinderella after she marries her prince)- was awesome. I had high hopes for Poisoned, a take on Sleeping Beauty. Overall? A fun read. Great characters. As always for Donnelly, well-written. […]
