A very cute rendition of Snow White with a twist! Her hair is a bright red instead of the usual red lips of the fairy tale. That’s where the similarities end. The rest is a treat for those who enjoy light fantasy with a touch of female empowerment. I think I’ll give the whole series a try!

Also as a side note: it’s really sad that it takes so long for some books to come stateside. Original publication was in 2007 and it was just printed in English in 2019.

Un po' confuso come inizio, un po' troppo superficiale? Vediamo col secondo volume.

Snow White with the Red Hair, is a very cute and cuddly story. It's about Shirayuki, who is drew the attention of the prince from her homeland, who wanted her as a concubine. So she decided to run (good on her!) to the neighboring kingdom.

This book is split up into 3 chapters. The first one is the story of how she meets Zen and how he saves her. Chapter 2 tells a little more about how people from this kingdom and the relationship of Shirayuki and Zen. Chapter 3 is the beginning of the career that Shirayuki is trying to achieve.

The artwork is stunning! I love it. However, the reason for the 3 stars: I feel like there are times that the story skips a little bit too much. It's an extremely adorable story. I wouldn't call it a love story just yet. Maybe it changes in the future. They're protectiveness towards each other seems more familial then romantic at this point. Maybe it'll change, but right now, that's how it feels.
