Image result for villains by serena valentino Let's Just Talk About the Covers For A Moment 

  I love that the dust jacket that has the villain's face and then when you remove it, a different version of that villain is underneath. My favorite so far is definitely Mistress of All Evil with that beautiful dragon on the inside cover. I am interested to see was Evil Thing will look like since Curella Devil does not change in any way throughout that film. Will there be a dog on the inside cover?
  I think the cover for the French(on the right) version of The Odd Sisters is beautiful.

My Favorite Quotes From the Series:

  • "I cannot live in fear of losing him, for fear of not living my life at all" - Fairest of All
  • "How do you honor a witch who has betrayed you?"- Mistress of All Evil
  • "So many books to read and worlds to escape into, so much history to learn. No matter what was happening, no matter how distressing it was, all she had to do was go to the library and it would be all well in her world."- Mother Knows Best\
  • "Sometimes we create images of people we love and hate in our minds, and those images override what we see with our eyes, even when they are right in front of us. Even if we've imagined them to be monsters, to see them as they truly are with our eyes and our hearts is something shocking."- Mother Knows Best

  Clap When You Land  was an amazing novel. On top of that, Elizabeth Acavado's writing was beautiful.  5 "The whole time she swallowed her words like bitter pills not realizing that they were slow dripping poison." 4 "Papi was a man split in two playing a game against himself But the problem with that is in order to win, you always lose" 3 "A queen offers her hand to be kissed, & can form it into a fist while smiling the whole damn time" 2 You do not let your words stunt unknown possibilities." 1 "Fight until you can't breathe, & if you have to forfeit you forfeit smiling, make them think you let them win."

 I got so many new books this month I'm excited to read! About half of the books I got were graphic novels because I've been in a bit of a reading slump lately. Act Cool  by Tobly McSmith Act Cool  is a recent release that looks so good! Goodreads synopsis: Aspiring actor August Greene just landed a coveted spot at the prestigious School of Performing Arts in New York.

August is convinced he can play the part his parents want while acting cool and confident in the company of his talented new friends. But who is August when the lights go down?

Fairest of All by Serena Valentino

Image
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
