"But my dream has already come true, Momma. You came for me as I knew you would. I love you..."
This series is marketed towards children, but it's also for adults - especially those who grew up reading and watching Disney stories. Since it's for 10+ year olds, the writing is easy to understand and it's quick to read (Fairest of All is under 300 pages).
I love villain stories so of course I had to start reading this series. I never thought this will make me teary-eyed and sad. The Queen loved Snow White. She really did.
The story's build up was good, making you love The Queen so when she became evil, you'll find yourself understanding her actions.
Every villain has a story. Every villain has a reason why they became evil. It will never justify the evil things villains do, but origin stories help us understand them more. It's a pain knowing how a pure heart becomes corrupted.
I cannot wait to read the rest of the series. I think the next one is about Beauty & The Beast.
