The Odd Sisters by Serena Valentino

-

Though out the Villains series, the Odd Sisters have messed up everyone's lives. They've manipulated the Beast, the Evil Queen, Ursula, Malicafent, and Mother Gothel. Now, it's time for the fairies to chose the Sister's fate. Meanwhile, Circe and Snow White dive deeper into the Sister's shocking past. Their dark truth we finally emerge from beneath the shadows.

I was expecting The Odd Sisters to make me pitty Lucinda, Ruby, and Martha but I still hate them! Unlike the rest of the books in the Villains series, this book didn't make me feel bad at all for the book's main villain.

Now that I've talked about the sisters, I'll talk a little bit about the other characters in this book. Circe was nice and she kept the story moving. I enjoyed her, but she seemed like the only character on the side of good with a conflict. She had something that she was searching for and compared to the other characters, she was really fun.

Snow White was such a dull character though! She did nothing but reading and follow Circe around. And the fairies were really boring too, but fortunately, they were only in a few chapters.

I can't possibly explain how much I love the covers in this series! I love that under the dust jacket there is a whole new image. For example, the poison apple on the cover of The Odd Sisters turns into a rotten apple core. I don't have any other covers like this and it makes this series so much more unique.

Page Count: 250 pages (Hardcover) Published: August 18, 2009 My Rating: 4 stars Series: Villians book 1 Genre: Fantasy   While she may seem like a jealous queen after a young girl's beauty, she is so much more. They may have been logic and heartache behind the Queen's attempts on the sweet girl's life. The Queen struggles with her looks and the trauma from her childhood helps her accept the fact that she must become the fairest of them all.    This is definitely my favorite version of Snow White! From the Queen's early days as a child to her last moments, Serena Valentino took this seemingly innocent fairy tale and turned it into something dark and twisted. This is by far the most heartbreaking story of Snow White ever. At the same time, this book has enough plot twists to keep any reader entertained. You'll never believe who the magic mirror really is!      Even though Snow White has never been my favorite, this is definitely a book I would be willi
