  • Everyone knows the story of Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty, Rapunzel and Snow White, but the truth is the bards got a lot wrong. For instance, all those Princes Charmings have a name, and their stories have cast them aside in various embarassing ways. But it’s not the annoying songs that bring the princes together. That all…

  • So I’m the third series before I finish my fractured fairytale TBR pile. I was a big fan of Holub and Williams’ Goddess Girls series so they take the school AU to the fairytale universe. That trope is very popular, so let’s see how they rank up.

  • Riley returns to the series that started his career. Though the dimension has no name, the fairytale characters are larger than ever. Except Lena. She’s a giant, only she’s 12 feet tall. She’s more like a taller than average human and a doll to the giants. She’s been hidden from her people most of her…

  • Calonita’s spin off/concurrent trilogy, Royal Academy Rebels brings readers back to the kingdom of Enchantsia. Only, it’s not the reformed villains who are in trouble.

But then a princess falls out…

  • I’m calling these supplemental books because they are fun extras that expand the world, but you don’t necessarily need to read them. They’re just fun, I mean you can’t tell a writer enjoys their world when they keep adding stuff to it. I get it.

  • I know I said I’d redo this once I read all the arcs but since arc 10 and arc 11 aren’t going to be published until next year, I decided just to add my thoughts on Arc 9 now before I forget it too much. Unfortunately, it ranks the very last as I’ll explain below.

  • I think most people know this series as it’s one of the more popular fractured fairytale series, and deservedly so, with Buckley’s sincere pathos, humor and adventurous escapades. But for those not in the know. Sabrina, and Daphne’s lives have turned for the worst in the past year, bouncing from awful foster situation to Dickinsinian…

  • In the midst of of WW1, the four Purcell sisters come of age in the backyard of the local pastor’s family, the Mackenzies finding love, fufillment, and venturing out to the big world after their parents’ deaths.
