Sleeping Beauty: Vampire Slayer (Twisted Tales) by Maureen McGowan
13. April 2011
Format:Taschenbuch
My thoughts:
I loved the idea of being able to choose the path that the story would take. I was really excited about the fact that each time the story was read it could change! The downfall to reading this ARC on the Kindle is that there are no page numbers and so I was unable to actually do any choosing. I did get the entire story cover to cover encompassing all the choices in one reading. I completely enjoyed the book!
I was intrigued by the different take on both humans and vampires that we are given in this tale. I love the twist to the traditional fairy tale! I have seen many and read few of the fairy tale spin offs, this was creatively and cleverly done.
The world that has been created is believable (considering we are talking about paranormal fairy tale fantasy) and I never found myself saying - - - "No way could that happen there!"
Maureen McGowan built interesting characters. I can't say that I loved them all, because truly Queen Catia has some issues. She seems completely sane and somewhat unconcerned with the curse when compared to King Stefan who is completely out of control with fear for his only child! Even though they are both hoping to save Lucette from the curse - they can never seem to agree on the best way to keep her safe. The Vampire Queen Natasha is awful, evil, hateful, and cruel - as a good villain should be. Alex is fantastic from the first meeting and of course Tristan is .... well Tristan. Lucette is an incredible character!
All the characters seem to be well thought out and carefully created! Lucette's grandparents are a great addition and add to the twisting plot of the story. The author is great with subtle hints along the way - such as the description of the grandfather... (no spoilers).
This was my first Maureen McGowan read and enjoyed every page! I plan to read Cinderella: Ninja Warrior as soon as I have cleared up a few of my review stacks. I can't wait to see how that one plays out too!!!

LOVED IT!!!
16. April 2012
Format:Taschenbuch
It was everything I was hoping for and more... the fact that it has 8 different ways to it, remarkable! Quite clever too, if you think about it.
I loved Sleeping Beauty in this story so much more than the original fairytale, and let me tell you it had a large bit to live up to being my favorite fairytale. She was so independent and strong, and the fact she could defend herself was a bonus!
I realized after I decided to read it, that it's a second in the series. Yes I have the other book, Cinderella Ninja Warrior, but I didn't think I would be lost. I sure don't feel lost now after reading it either.
Good stuff, for everyone 12+.

Happily ever after......
23. Juli 2011
Format:Taschenbuch
I love these books. I first read "Cinderella: Ninja Warrior", and found it fantastic. "Sleeping Beauty: Vampire Slayer" is just as great. Both books are from the Twisted Tales series, where you are given several choices for the story to lead. I must admit, I would rather have read a straight storyline, with an ereader it is difficult to jump around within the book. I choose to read this book straight through, which messed up the time-line, but I wanted read every line. This books was so well written, you really rooted for the Princess. Cursed from birth by an evil queen, Princess Lucette is not a typical weak and wimpy victim, this Princess knows that she must fight to save herself from the curse. She goes through great personal pain and hardship to learn how to protect herself and her family, ultimately saving not just herself but also her kingdom. I love how this is written like the traditional fairy tale, with Kings and Queens, castles and all the usual fairy tale trappings, but a strong, powerful Princess takes center stage. For me to live happily ever after I hope that more Twisted Tales are in the works.
