SYNOPSIS 

The Evil Queen in the Making…
From the time she was a child, Azura was consumed with the need to consolidate power. Unlike those born as Vessels for Elemental spirits, Azura is forced to practice Dark Magic, her powers fueled by the remains of supernatural creatures. But the remains are finite, the Mystical woods not replenishing in the speed she requires, in order to fuel the dark spells she needs, she will need to marry into a Royal Bloodline. A Royal bloodline which drips with Elemental Power, which produces not just one Vessel, but two. The crown of Lithelle is hers for the taking, finally about to become the evil queen she was born to be.

Her touch makes you shiver…
Born as the Vessel of the Ice Elemental, Snow White has always been kept apart from those around her. When her father announces he intends to invite all the eligible ladies and princesses from the surrounding kingdoms in the hopes of finding a new wife, Snow’s tender heart races with excitement. A chance to finally make friends, to no longer be alone, to be *warm.*

Dark meets Ice…
Azura is immediately drawn to the dark beauty with the scent of frosted apples, temptation wrapped in a perfect bow. Snow dreams of Azura’s touch and kiss, though feigns to only want friendship at the risk of losing her. Yet, something is lurking in the forest just out of sight, about to tear them apart…forever.

MY REVIEW

Firstly I want to thank Rose & Star team for providing me with an ARC of Snow White in exchange of an honest review. 


I’ll just start this review just by explaining the points where I loved the book and the parts which made me go uhmmmmmmmm? This review is completely spoiler free so don’t worry. 


First of all, I loved how this book was a dual POV and gave us both their perspectives of how things are. Azura is the evil witch and Snow is the innocent princess but I wish these aspects of characters could have been explored more. Rather than focusing on the character personality I felt like we focus more on character feeling and it’s good but I did wish we got more development in personalities. 


Now the part where I went uhmmmmmmmm was basically the part where Azura is “supposed” to be the step mom of Snow. It wasn’t that bad once I really got to read the book and plot but I was just shook after discovering this. I did feel the plot was a it rushed. Despite that the authors included other Disney fairytales and it was a crossover I didn’t know I needed πŸ₯ΊπŸ₯Ί.


The romance was great and I feel like the authors can really develop on these points and the sequel might just be a 5 stars.

My Favorite LGBTQ+ Books 🏳️‍🌈🏳‍🌈

As you all might know, it's June which mean it's Pride month! 🏳‍🌈🏳️‍🌈 Pride Month is the month where we celebrate the lives of those people part of the LGBTQ+ community. I read a few new LGBTQ+ books this month, and I've read many from before as well. I read one of the books I am going to mention like 2-3 days ago only, and yes, I liked that book that much for it to make it onto my favourites instantly).  I thought if I can make my bullet journal pride-themed I can also do a blog post on my favourite LGBTQ+ Books! Now this list would not specifically contain only LGBTQ+ romance. It'll have a book that showcases the LGBTQ+ community even though the main plot does not revolve around their romance.  Most of the LGBTQ+ books I have read on Wattpad, and I might be making a recommendation on that soon, but all of the books I am going to mention here are the ones that are actually published books.  1. Red White and Royal Blue by Casey McQuiston  "History, huh? Bet we ...

Chain of Gold Book Review ( Spoiler Alert!!)

-
Image
  I know I'm pretty late to do this since the book came out in March, and as of now, it's August, but I am still gonna do it.  The Chain of Gold is the first book in The Last Hours series and is set in Edwardian London and is the next generation story of The Infernal Devices series, which is set in Victorian London.  The book is mostly written from the point of Cordelia Carstairs, who is the female main character. Other main characters include James and Lucie Herondale, Thomas and Christopher Lightwood, Matthew Fairchild, Jesse, Grace Blackthorn, and Alastair Carstairs.  We were first introduced to this era in Tales from Shadowhunter Academy, where Tessa tells us about James and how he can slip in as shadows due to his demonic origins from his mother's side ( Tessa is his mother). We are also told about how Matthew and James become Parabatai.  Then in a few bonus chapters from Cassandra claire before the book's release,k we were told about the relationship of H...

Must Read Classics

        Little Women, Louisa May Alcott T his classic was published by Louisa May Alcott in 2 volumes, one in 1968 and the other in 1969. This story deals with the story of 4 girls Meg, Jo, Beth, and Amy March. They live with their mother in Massachusetts  in poverty while their father is away for the war. It is a story written about the adventure, mistakes, and experiments of the four girls. I enjoyed reading this because of the fun the girls have and how they discover various aspects of life. Like me, Jo is a little tomboyish and enjoys to write, Meg was the eldest and is beautiful, Amy is still in school, but I find her a little bit dramatic, and Beth is the timid piano player. The March sisters had a neighbor Laurie which made the entire reading more fun with his black eyes and curly black hair. He was adopted by his grandfather and was being tutored by John Brooks to enter Harvard. You will definitely have bipolar moods reading this one. The recent mov...

5 Must-Reads for Teens

1. Percy Jackson and the Olympians, Rick Riordan   This book was my first ever book into the fantasy and teen fiction books. This book is filled with adventures of Demigods and centaurs and cyclopes and also with our sassy and funny protagonist Percy Jackson. This series takes you through the journey of Percy and his friends from stealing Zeus's lightning to holding the sky and going through the labyrinth. If you have already read this, you can read the excellent spin-off series The Heroes of Olympus, which has even more funny and sassy characters. The book is recommended for children above 12 and is like one of the best series that made me laugh and sometimes cry ( if you read the other spin-off, that's The Apollo Trials, no spoilers). But this is one of the best novel series I have ever read. 2. The Hunger Games, Suzanne Collins Teens, if you love Liam Hemsworth, you probably have already watched the movies, but you know books are better than films. So this book series is rig...
