From Jennifer Donnelly, author of the acclaimed New York Times bestseller Stepsister, comes a fairytale retelling that’ll forever change the way you think about strength, power, and the real meaning of “happily ever after.”

Once upon a time, a girl named Sophie rode into the forest with the queen’s huntsman. Her lips were the color of ripe cherries, her skin as soft as new-fallen snow, her hair as dark as midnight. When they stopped to rest, the huntsman took out his knife . . . and took Sophie’s heart.

It shouldn’t have come as a surprise. Sophie had heard the rumors, the whispers. They said she was too kind and foolish to rule — a waste of a princess. A disaster of a future queen. And Sophie believed them. She believed everything she’d heard about herself, the poisonous words people use to keep girls like Sophie from becoming too powerful, too strong . . .

With the help of seven mysterious strangers, Sophie manages to survive. But when she realizes that the jealous queen might not be to blame, Sophie must find the courage to face an even more terrifying enemy, proving that even the darkest magic can’t extinguish the fire burning inside every girl, and that kindness is the ultimate form of strength.

When it comes to fairytale retellings I’ve always been on the fence. Some are amazing and some completely destroy the fairytale. Jennifer Donnely does an amazing job with this one! Poisoned is a retelling of Snow White & The Seven Dwarves. Without spoiling it for anyone that wants to read it, let me just tell you – it’s a page turner full of suspense and action. Not one dull moment! The setting was described in a way that you were right there next to the characters. The characters themselves pulled you in. Some made you want to hug them and others you would rather see gone. A dark retelling with some crazy twists. The cover of this book is stunning! This was my first book I’ve read by Jennifer Donnelly, and it has made me a fan. If you haven’t already pre-ordered your own copy, what are you waiting for? It releases October 20th, an amazing read for this Halloween holiday! o:p>
