I loved this book, and I'm glad a second is on it's way! The Stepsister Scheme blends fairy tales and magic, with some of the attitude of urban fantasy and a quest reminiscent of classic fantasy. Do we really know the tale of Cinderella, Sleeping Beauty and Snow White, or was it just rumor? What happened after the wedding bells rang, the Beauty woke, and Snow White left the castle? Hines answers these questions and shows us more of fairy with the three girls in the lead. Their determination, humor and magical and athletic abilities kept me amused throughout the book!

Please be kind to those around you. May I remind you that not everyone appreciates curse words or crude jokes. To quote my little friend Thumper, "If you can't say someffin nice, don't say nuffin at all." That said, comment away!
