Story4 out of 5 stars 202
It is 1502, and seven-year-old Bianca de Nevada lives at Montefiore, the farm of her father, Don Vicente. But one day a noble entourage makes its way up to the farm. In the presence of Cesare Borgia and his sister, the lovely and vain Lucrezia, no one can claim innocence for very long. When Borgia sends Don Vicente on a quest, he leaves Bianca under the care of Lucrezia. She plots a dire fate for the young girl in the woods below the farm, but salvation can be found in the dark forest as well.

What did you like best about Mirror Mirror? What did you like least?
I had a hard time lfollowing this book, as I was listening to it, I am not sure if it was the content, or the dialect, or the accent of the author. Never finished, as it was to hard to follow along.
Would you be willing to try another book from Gregory Maguire? Why or why not?
Yes,I will try others as I enjoy his other books, it was just this one was tough.
Something went wrong. Please try again in a few minutes.
