The cover already had me at "Poisoned" and I knew what to expect, yet I didn't.
I had expected Snow White to be the Point Of View, yet I had not expected the Huntsman, a sure and unexpected change to the usual story.
I had expected the retelling of Snow White, yet I had not expected that the author had included me in this ancient fairy tale as well.
I had expected the usual tropes of a standard fairy tale, yet I had not expected the usual tropes I had grown up with to be twisted and burnt, to have new and strange tropes rise from the ashes as the modern "phoenix" come to save the book world.
Expect the unexpected with this book.
Because that is what you are served as the main course, with a dash of clever interpretations and a side of reality which we don't expect of a fairy tale book.
Expect the unexpected with this book.
Fairy tales are meant to let their readers escape reality. This phenomenal book with just its "First Look" has managed to change my reality and helped me to embrace it.
Expect the Unexpected.
