The last book I read with so many fairytale characters was Dust City, and I really enjoyed that one.A Canadian Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07127164685941412250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1211090800803751472.post-54537002894210402422012-03-07T18:48:55.129-06:002012-03-07T18:48:55.129-06:00It reminds me of Jasper Fforde books.

Your review gives plenty of information to let me know what it's about and that there is some humor to it. I'd love to read this one.<br /><br />HeatherBURIED IN BOOKShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18205451716054533728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1211090800803751472.post-80517353695447466752012-03-07T14:01:35.881-06:002012-03-07T14:01:35.881-06:00Snow White...divorced?

Even on TV, like you said. I've never been that into them. I've read some good ones, like Jackson Pearce's books and Cinder but it's not something I'm naturally drawn to.Alison Can Readhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17908868606441539344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1211090800803751472.post-47396325834978851872012-03-07T10:39:57.826-06:002012-03-07T10:39:57.826-06:00Yep, I'm one of those people who totally loves...Yep, I'm one of those people who totally loves the fairy-tale popularity. I hadn't heard of this graphic novel, but now I'm intrigued! Like you said, it's neat that the author mixed in everyday problems with the more fantastic problems. Great review, Rummanah! I'll have to check the library for this one. :)Lauren Mhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05749629168151466704noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1211090800803751472.post-85113505625602703422012-03-07T10:32:00.970-06:002012-03-07T10:32:00.970-06:00Ooooo I don't so much read graphic novels but ...Ooooo I don't so much read graphic novels but I absolutely adore fairytale retellings and especially "fractured" ones where we get a combination of different fairytale characters put together in a single story. It would definitely be amusing to see them stressing over normal everyday issues like finances:) Thanks for the review Rummanah!Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14199685365145765394noreply@blogger.com
