UnEnchanted

Fun

A very fun story. This is why I fully support Free Culture and Public Domain, it allows anyone to adapt/remix stories to create new ones. This novel was one of it as it brought the Grimm Tales to the current time, linked together in so many ways.

I liked that there were many funny moments especially the restaurant date scene. I had to pause, reread, and laugh hard again and again. Likewise, I liked the build up to the story. I felt the dread and the wear when her clothes all turned red for the first time, for I knew that story very well. That one felt real, after all the revelations, especially since the first tale was presented ensuring the reader doesn't know any better than our dear Grimm heroine.

Cute start to the series. I'll read the next one.

I see a lot of the reviews say the typos were terrible. Thank god I listened to this on audio, because nothing pulls me out of a book faster than poor editing. Mina is clumsy and unpopular at her high school. She has a crush on the popular rich guy. She reminds me of Mia from the Princess Diaries. In fact, now that I think about it, her best friend reminds me of Lily, and the whole book is similar in a lot of ways. So if you liked the Princess Diaries, you will probably like this book too.

Anyway, standard high school young adult paranormal. Three stars.

I loved the concept, but I found the poor editing very distracting.
