With the wit of authors like Jennifer Weiner and the vision of ABC's Once Upon a Time, the women of Desperately Ever After rescue each other from life's trials with laughter, wine, and a scandalous new take on happily ever after.… (mere)

This book was a bit slow for me to get into during the first quarter of the book. I found myself putting it down a few times. I'm not sure if it was because the opening scene (involving Belle) wasn't appealing to me or if I just had to get used to the playful tone of the story, but it didn't completely grab my attention till a quarter of the way through. But once things started to pick up, I was hooked. I couldn't put it down.

There were quite a lot of funny parts that had me snickering. I fell in love with the characters, even the supporting ones who popped up here and there. Cinderella's parts of the story were definitely my favorite out of the three. I was pleasantly surprised about Ethan and the mystery involving his identity. This whole story was wrapped up nicely in the end and had me wanting more.

Overall, I had a lot of fun reading this book and would recommend it to fairytale oficionados. I'm looking forward to the sequel! ( )
