"Mrs. Ross, i just finished this book and it was so good! You have to read it!" With an endorsement like that, I don't think I have much of a choice! #teachersoflitsy #librariansoflitsy #schoollibraries

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ I reread this one since I finally got all of the books that are out in this series. I loved it both times and now realize the connections between all of the books 😂 this one shines a lot on how the Evil Queen became so vain. It‘s very well done.

Though I didn‘t knock out all my 2021 reading challenges, @Charityann posted the #FairyTaleReading challenge and I couldn‘t resist! This first book in the #DisneyVillainsSeries tells #SnowWhite from the Wicked Queen‘s perspective. She gets some background- as does the Magic Mirror- but not a name! I enjoyed the audio performance & it‘s a quick listen but not as meaty of a retelling as I prefer! Still it‘s fun & I‘ll check out more! #AudioColoring

An interesting take on the origin story of The Wicked Queen.

A good moral message on how beauty and vanity can destroy a person and become an obsession.

Definately going to read the others in the Villians series!

This was a great read! A quick book but really good take on the Queen's story!

4✨ Callie‘s tail was tickling my neck as I finished this one. I‘m always up for a fairy tale retelling. This one did not disappoint as an origin story of the Wicked Queen. I wish she had a name besides “Queen”. I felt for her through the story as it leads up to an ending we are all familiar with if you know Snow White. The epilogue almost made me cry! It is a little dark, but not overly scary for an older kid.

An interesting take on the story of the evil queen. Very simple writing but intrigued me enough to read the rest of the story.

⭐️⭐️ ◼️ this was my #march #bookspin and it took me a while to read it cause I really couldn‘t get into it. I finally finished....I will post my goodreads review later. https://www.goodreads.com/review/show/3028661603 As promised here is my review. @TheAromaofBooks

I love the dust jackets and hard covers of these books.

A solid 3⭐. I am going to try more of these villain stories in hopes that I enjoy them more.

The most reflective cover I think I‘ve ever seen. Found the new YA section in my local library (that I‘ve only been to twice!) and walked out with 4 books more than I had planned. So far, 115 pages into this one. It‘s been on my list for a long time now. I love villains and twisted tales.

Okay, sorry for all the posts of these lol. I just love the covers and now I finally have them all together!
👸🏻🤴🏻🧜🏻‍♀️🧚🏻‍♀️😈👩🏻🍎👩🏻‍🦳. Hope you all are having a good day/night! The moon tonight is super big and bright. Looks so cool!!🌝☺️📚

Have read so far of this series. I just love all the covers of all the books in this series!📚 👸🏻🤴🏻🧜🏻‍♀️🧚🏻‍♀️

Super cute, liked the reference to other Queens 😁 Got more emotion out of me than I expected!

#MidyearRush stats so far! Just passing the 39 hour mark, and still going strong. I‘ve finished my #ReadYourSign prompts, listened to 9 audios, read 8 graphic novels + 16 children‘s books, and surpassed my #goodreadsgoal. I‘m also on course to complete a few more challenges and projects this weekend, since I have no plans aside from reading and crafts.... and maybe a quick trip to the thrift store for more books! 😏☺️

Work was CRAZY today. The hospital is starting to ramp up clinics and surgeries again, which made for a chaotic day for my department. I‘m heading home to start my double #Readathon weekend with the tagged audiobook. Sorry not sorry for all the incoming posts this weekend 😂♥️

Loved this....We have a little evil queen in us all 👑🔮🍎💜💜😋

Here‘s my #TBR line up for tomorrow #readathon #deweyapril

I joined a Disney Book Club. This is our first book! I‘m so excited for this group! #talejumpers

“Madness is in the mind of the beholder, my Queen.”

Another Disney tale that I truly enjoyed! Maybe my opinion is biased, but I‘ve always like the Disney villains, so I‘m excited to read about their sides of the stories. Hearing about the Queen‘s life, and seeing her transformation throughout the book is enchanting.

Sooooo good

Feeling witchy and making some candy apples, hold the arsenic 😜🍭🍎

5 stars ⭐️ ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️ Wonderful written! A tragic tale of love, loss, magic and vanity! Love love love ❤️ now I will move on to read the other books of the Villains Series.

So it‘s that time again for Dewey‘s 24 hour readathon! I‘m getting a late start because I was having a bad day and wasn‘t feeling up to it at first but now I kind of regret the late start. I‘ll read till 10 pm tomorrow to make up for it. I‘m gonna start by reading Fairest of all. No photos this time around because my camera on my phone is broken :( #dewaug #reversereadathon

I really enjoyed the first book in the Disney Villains series. I also love that when you take off the dust jacket the cover has what the villain also looks like. This book gives the back story of the evil queen. It allows you to understand her more! I am so glad that I already have the other books and can continue with the series.

Current situation: I have one full lap. Ruby isn't happy at all that Brillo is up here with her! 🐶🐱📚🐱🐶📚

I am really enjoying this series! Yes, this is a series and should be read in order, BUT each book can be read alone. I actually read the 3rd book first and realized that it was referencing things from the first two.

Its an interesting concept to try and tell the villains story while working within the confines of what has already been told about the heroines. These are not literary masterpieces, but are comfort food with a twist! Enjoy!

I‘ve been a hardcore Disney fan for as long as I can remember. I‘ve heard good things about this book series. And this was an interesting turn in Disney‘s story of Snow White... given the name of the series. 😂

I definitely should have been done with this by now but the weather is discouraging me it seems. I just want to lounge and watch movies. Ugh! 😑 Also is it crazy I‘m ready for bed because I‘m getting book mail tomorrow?! 😬🥰😂

I tried reading this awhile ago but it didn‘t catch my attention. Hopefully this is the month. Also this will work for #Royalty for #LiteraryLuck yeah?! 😂
I‘ve been a little inactive because my phone is trying to break on me ugh.

I love fairy tales and books so this was a fun read. Very interesting. It gives a new perspective of the Wicked Queen.

Disney makes me happy. Books make me happy. This book (you guessed it) made me happy!!

This was an interesting perspective that actually made me empathize with the Wicked Queen. Quick, fun read! 😁👍🏼

Celebrating Mickey‘s 90th with the magic of #DisneySwap!

I was so excited to receive all of these gifts, but even happier to have made a new #penpal and friend! 💝

I‘ve been waiting to start the Serena Valentino series, and Belle is my FAVORITE princess, so I can‘t wait to read these books! 📖 Thanks for all of these great gifts @Whimsical.Curiosity 😁🏰🎢🐭

#disney #swap #litsyswap #litsylove

I actually ordered a couple more but my little book stack of random books. All for under $13
Going to try the Disney villain books again, I tried as an e book but couldn‘t get into it. Here‘s hoping 🤞🏼 😁

I love retellings! This shows a different perspective on the Wicked Queen. Short and sweet with an ending I did not see coming. On to the next villain!

I didn‘t finish very many in August. With my new job I‘ve been running like mad, but it‘s been worth it!

Loved the queens point of view!!

A little quiet time

When I need some quiet time I grab my kindle.

Finally some time to read

Ok. Snow White has never been my most favorite movie. But the story being woven here is absolutely giving me everything I want. I‘m kinda getting a kick out how the evil queen is written. Daddy issues, insecurities out the ying yang. Addiction issues. Hate fueled jealousy. She is written as the psychotic, unstable, bitchy terror I‘ve alway envisioned her as. 😂I don‘t know if I should be laughing at this but I kinda am. 🤭

Update: angry widow gets angry if she isn‘t the prettiest broad in the room. Squashes stepdaughters hopes for love. Has an addiction issue.

Very good, I loved reading it from the Queen's perspective 😊 #blameitonlitsy #LitsyAtoZ #LetterV @BookishMarginalia
