I have noted from your posts that you have tons of difficulties over there obtaining titles.<br /><br />I hope you enjoy it as much as I did - will be looking out for your thoughts.<br /><br />Krista!<br /><br />I think you may like this - its not like our version of snow white. Its entirely different.<br /><br />Be prepared for very dark!<br /><br />I can't wait for your thoughts on this one as well. I know we both love Sanderson - so it will be interesting to see if this fits the bill as well.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10360453947198770223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3206685128986486929.post-48425151886305134332010-02-28T19:16:24.021-08:002010-02-28T19:16:24.021-08:00Oh man, Shellie, this sounds awesome!

I'm also a highly visual person and I like the picture you have painted for me already. This is right up my alley and I will definitely have to pick up this book. Thank you for the 5 star review! :)Kristahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00246520046645594673noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3206685128986486929.post-36542782488009373522010-02-28T14:07:58.615-08:002010-02-28T14:07:58.615-08:00great review-I will look for this book in the stor...great review-I will look for this book in the stores here in ManilaMel uhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08714473754458914681noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3206685128986486929.post-66412495958549817922010-02-28T08:30:16.249-08:002010-02-28T08:30:16.249-08:00Aarti -

I'm slightly twisted in that respect... more coming around this subject.<br /><br />Not everyone is going to be able to get through this book or past the first chapter. Some of the stuff brought up in the book is considered taboo - and the beginning is bordering creepy. Also the language is hard if your not familiar with England/Australian English - not to say that would a deterrent for you.<br /><br />I may have had a tough time a number of years ago but since I am married to an English man I am very accustomed to the language differences... which you may not think exist.. but they do.<br /><br />The book does bring up many many important issues... and the writing is amazing as is her creativity for bringing the story line together.<br /><br />I will keep my eyes peeled around your thoughts about this book. :)<br /><br />Alexia -<br />Thank you!<br /><br />This is only my tiny opinion. I will definitely be interested in what you think about it too.<br /><br />This is my first World Fantasy Award winner - I am now a big fan. I wonder how long it will take me to read the entire list...lol. At my reading rate I may not make it through before I die. But it will be fun trying.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10360453947198770223noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3206685128986486929.post-2734519207981297392010-02-27T20:06:03.123-08:002010-02-27T20:06:03.123-08:00Great review!

I'm reading a collection of Grimm's fairy tales at the moment, and it's got both "Snow White" (which is the familiar one with the dwarves) and "Snow White and Rose Red" in it, and they don't have much in common except the name. I wonder how (or if) the two tales are related historically?Fyreflyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10267651786697866292noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3206685128986486929.post-71783705591370314732010-02-27T11:04:57.274-08:002010-02-27T11:04:57.274-08:00An EXCELLENT review, Shellie, along with other oth...An EXCELLENT review, Shellie, along with other other readers' thoughts.
