Julia’s 🎩🎩🎩🎩🎩 hat review:
Dawn to Dark is jam packed with every kind of new twist on classic fairytales you can imagine. Everything from the super sexy to the sugary sweet is found in this fantastic group of author’s who have come together for this anthology! I loved the walk down memory lane these stories told. I loved going back to my childhood and seeing these stories through different eyes.
Arabella is a sweet Cinderella. Shes lived a hard life and when she finally runs away and meets the man of her dreams, things become a little harder. Royce and Arabella are sweet together, and this story was adorable.
I’ve never read a modern day Alladin and I was pleasantly surprised by it. It has all the trappings of Alladin but set in modern day. Everything you love about this favorite has been brought to life in a whole new world (pun intended) to make you fall in love with these characters the same way I did as a child.
Witching Woods was completely different from what I expected. I loved Rose and Lily’s story and I loved the myths interwoven in it. This is one I hope can have another story attached to it as I was completely captivated with it.
Out Of The Woods is a sweet Beauty and The Beast retelling and I loved it! I loved how brave Isabella was and how sweet Caleb is. I also love the twist of the retelling!
Part Of Your World was an interesting take on The Little Mermaid. I adored this story!
Woman In The Ivy Tower was exactly what I was looking for! Dark and twisted with the fairytale lore running through it. I LOVED this take on Rapunzel! As much as I loved the other stories, this one by far is my favorite!
Moon Bitten is an awesome take on one of my favorite fairytales. I loved this author’s take on the fairytale! I was left in shock and she had me completely guessing throughout the story.

wandering and losing myself. That’s how we met—deep within the woods in the
first days of spring, when frost thawed atop the lake and his green eyes melted
ice from my nervous heart.

to never leave. I melt into him, lips hot as the first flakes of snow dance

honey eyes and sweet, crooked smile. Though I suspect her hatred is aimed more
at the threat he will steal me from her. Just as her daughter, my mother, was
stolen so many years ago I can no longer picture her face. But that was different.
Mother did not fall in love as I have. She was taken…

cheek as he kisses my forehead. “Tomorrow,” he promises.
