'Beautiful Sophie, with lips as red as blood, skin as pale as snow, and hair as dark as night, is about to come of age and inherit her father's throne. But Sophie's stepmother wants rid of her - beautiful she may be, but too weak and foolish to reign. And Sophie believes her, as she believes all the things that have been said about her - all the poisonous words people use to keep girls like her from becoming too powerful, too strong.
When the huntsman carries out his orders of killing Sophie, she finds a fire burning inside her that will not be extinguished, and sets off to reclaim what was taken from her.'
I love fairy tale retellings and i knew as soon as i saw this i knew i needed to to read it. This immediately stuck out go me because of the title. The author seemed like a strong feminist and it was clearly shown in her writing. I admire this book and would recommend it to anyone.
