Definitely interesting

I almost didn't get past the first chapter of this book because it read too much like Shakespeare to me. However, I pushed on and I was glad that I did because it didn't take long to catch on. True, the story took some bizarre turns, but I actually fell in love with the way that Maguire writes. I liked the different perspectives that he told the story from. I thought it was an interesting take on the story of Snow White. The only thing that I would warn against is that it isn't child-friendly and I didn't feel any real resolution in the end.Read full review...

I have rather enjoyed Maguire's other takes on favorite fairy tales, so I was quite disappointed by his unseemly interpretation of Snow White. I found the crudeness of the language and characters in this book to be quite disgusting. The storyline was also quite difficult to follow in spots (no flow). I could hardly bring self to finish it and when I did I was even disappointed in the ending (there was no resolution).Read full review...
