  Hera by Jennifer Saint Hera usually gets a bad rap by modern perspectives. A shrew, a horrible mother, a jealous bitch are the most common modifiers. Her husband cheats but she punishes the mistresses instead of Zeus himself. Then again, it’s not like she can go on a one on one attack with the King…

• Confessions of an Ugly Stepsister Review

  Maguire takes the tale of Cinderella to Holland during the height of the Tulip madness. Beauty is the theme of the day, the traditional aesthetic beauty of femininity, the beauty immortal captured on canvas, the beauty in nature, and of course, the inner beauty in charity.

• Cinder & Glass Review

  This might be the last of my fairytale binge for some time, but what a way to end it. De La Cruz’s retelling of Cinderella is a historical.
