I've mentioned this series before in another book I reviewed by the same author. Now, I can actually tell you about it's awesomeness. Basically Wendy Mass puts a twist to the plot of the popular fairytale, Sleeping Beauty.
Basically everything is the same in the beginning except that the prince is a son of an ogre, but thankfully didn't inherit any ogreness. In fact, the prince is quite handsome, with startling blue eyes and light brown hair. Unfortunately for the prince his mother despises beauty, but thankfully she doesn't notice her son's sudden teen handsomeness. The chapters fluctuate from the princess's point of view to the prince's. The prince actually doesn't have a name; he is just known as "the prince". The princes on the other hand is named Rose, and her beauty lives up to her name's beauty, if not more. Her fairy godmothers' bestowed a gift upon Rose which was everlasting beauty and perfection in every single thing she did.
I'm not going to tell you the twist in the story that Mass fabricated, but I am going to tell you it's amazing. This book is the definition of perfection; a little bit of this, a little bit of that. It's the perfect read for anyone anytime anywhere! :) So what's there to stop you from reading it?
