Insurgent Review

Fairest Review
Since I tackled Ella Enchanted, I decided to read another of Levine’s classic fairytale retellings. This time she tackles Snow White and she does it with plenty of twists and panache. I’ve said before, but I’ll repeat again I really admire her imagination when building her magic system and creating distinct languages, lore and other…
