Eighteen-year-old Calla Benson is just like any other normal teenage girl. She has a secret crush on her best friend, likes music and movies, works hard to make good grades, and does her best to stay out of trouble. But once in a blue moon, Calla is anything but normal. There’s a predatory animal lurking inside her, just waiting to rampage through the forest once a year.

One fateful night, Calla comes across something she’s never seen before - someone like her. After a tense meeting in the forest, Calla dives headlong into a fantastical land shrouded in mystery. With danger around every corner, she learns things are not always what they seem, and she is farther from normal than she ever imagined.

With the help of her best friends, a pair of brooding brothers, and a family she never knew she had, Calla embarks on a mission to save her people from a treacherous queen. With wolves, witches, deathly secrets, and mysterious lands (and a few confusing boys), Calla’s life is flipped upside down. It’s the stuff fairy tales are made of...because being a teenager wasn’t already difficult enough.

So, you think you know your fairy tales and the characters that populate them, but what you did not know is that the stories we hear are not necessarily true. Take Snow White, for example. Everyone knows that the wicked queen resented Snow's beauty and gave her a poisoned apple in order to kill her. Well, what if it was actually the other way and Snow was the psycho killer? Calla Benson is a normal teenage girl, but when the blue moon arrives, she shifts into a wolf. She found an entire group of children who were just like her when out in the forest on a run, but she's not just a wolf, she's Snow White's sister, and Snow is trying to destroy her. This is an amazingly clever and unique take on Wilhelm and Jacob Grimm who, incidentally, are central to this story. I can't wait for the continuation of this fabulous series.
The narration is very well done by Alycia Younker. The inflection, pace and her various accents were truly enjoyable!

Delightful!

I am a huge fan of fairy tales that have been twisted. I had not read any though where the Princess was actually the Viliain. Once I had started the audiobook it was difficult to pause it to sleep etc.
I am excited to see how the story unfolds for the Royal Children of the Evil Queen. If the others affected by the psychotic princesses are able to get the help they need.

The Princess are the Vilians!

So I have read many different twisted fairytale books, but this one really took me by surprise at how uniquely creative the author was with this particular twisted version. I quickly got wrapped in the characters and the tale and it was definitely a hard one to put down. I loved the characters and fantastic world building really brought it all to life. I will also say, the cover art is stunning, but had me thinking it was a Red Riding Hood retelling or mashup instead of Snow White... I definitely recommend this to anyone who likes the twisted fairytales recreations and I can't wait to see where the next story in this series goes!

Parents: this is acceptable for preteens and up
Language: G
Violence: PG13- normal to genre... wolf shifter hunting scenes and fight scenes that are bloody but not too descriptive
Sexual content: PG - normal cozy romance with kissing and snuggles, no bedroom scenes to warn of

Narrator (4.5⭐) was really fun and easy to listen to, did a good job with the voices and accents, but was a bit slow, I preferred listening at 1.3x speed.

This was my first experience with M. J. Padgett's work, and I enjoyed it a lot. The author took an old fairytale, changed it, and re-imagined it in a very creative way, that was both entertaining and clever. I am looking forward to the next book in the series. Alycia Younker's narration was great and added to the enjoyment of the tale. I was given a free copy of the audiobook, and I have voluntarily posted this review.

What a great fantastical read/listen. I could tell you that its basically about werewolves and an evil snow white, which it is...but the story line is really so good. Well written with great characters, Padgett makes you believe. The narration is off the charts amazing...loved the accents, I could listen all day! Overall this read/listen has it all...romance, suspense, twists and turns a HEA and lead in to the next in the series without it being a cliffhanger.

I loved this book! What a twist to the original fairytale we all grew up with. The narrator herself was fabulous, as was each one of the characters.

Fantastic

This is a twisted version of the original Grimm tale of Snow White.
Calla Benson is a teenage girl with a secret, once a year she turns into a wolf and hunts. Unbeknownst to her, she has more than that one crazy secret in her past.

This was a fun twist on a classic story, with new POV's and changes in character personalities. Overall a cute story for fans of remixed tales.
Cons- the narrator was a bit dry at times and felt like she was simply reading the book, droning on at times. Overall at a higher listening speed she did a good job.
As an adult the YA part was a little hard to swallow, the quick love and acceptance that wouldn't happen in real life. Yet, wait... this is fiction. So yeah, not an issue.

Fun listen to break up a long week. Good for teens as it's clean and adults who like to re-live childhood stories in a new way.

Thank you to StoryOrigin for a free copy of this audiobook in exchange for an honest review.

The story itself was great, but hearing someone else read it made it so much better. I really enjoyed how the narrator made the story seem better by changing her voice and accent for the males. Keep up the amazing work. I received a free arc audible and I am leaving an voluntary honest review.

long but so worth it
