This was a neat glimpse at this series and one that made me curious to explore it further.

I really liked this novella and I think that I am going to love this series as much as I love Dorothy Must Die one. This seems to be cross between two stories The Little Mermaid (but she seems to be a octopus so I thinking more like Ursala) but whatever she is the River Witch now and a male version of Elsa from Frozen, who can turn thinks to snow. I can't wait to read the second novella and then in a few weeks the first book in the series is out. This author did a ton of novellas for her first series and I liked that a lot because it really broke up the time between when the next book comes out. I look forward to read every book she writes.

If you love the Snow White fairytale, you will LOVE this! The shortfalls you in from the very beginning. Another excellent story by Danielle Paige!!

I love Danielle Paige’s novellas almost as much as the novels themselves. They continue the story so perfectly, but in a bite-size, easy to devour portion.

Being completely honest, I haven't read [b:Stealing Snow|28260524|Stealing Snow (Stealing Snow, #1)|Danielle Paige|https://i.gr-assets.com/images/S/compressed.photo.goodreads.com/books/1453999507l/28260524._SY75_.jpg|44880721] since it came out. So while some aspects were ringing a bell, I was a bit preoccupied trying to figure out what was going on.

But other than that I was so glad to be back in one [a:Danielle Paige|7305254|Danielle Paige|https://images.gr-assets.com/authors/1384272876p2/7305254.jpg]'s worlds because I love her series, though I never got around to reading the novellas. This had everything I have come to expect from Paige: great writing, great story, and a great retelling. I was bit put off by the littler mermaid aspect as I was not expecting it, but it soon morphed into the story I somewhat recalled from her previous book and I was hooked.

I wish the sequel to this series would come out soon because it's been four years...

But this was good too. At least there's more. For now.

This was a very interesting prequel and sneak peek into this new world. I am very eager and intrigued for the other prequel novella as well as Stealing Snow.

I love this little glimpse and background into the new world that Paige is creating. I love her Dorothy Must Die series and am a huge fan of retellings of classic stories so I can't wait to see what she can do with the Snow Queen. This does a great job setting things up & introducing use to what I can only imagine will be some very important (good or bad who knows) characters in Stealing Snow. I can't wait!!
