What's Going On Here?

There are SO MANY wonderful book review blogs out there and I can't compete with them, that is for sure. So this is not a book review blog. This is just a way for me to organize what I have read so that I can be better at matching the right book to the right person. The blog title comes from the brilliant mind of the most talented woman who ever lived, Ms. Judy Garland. The full quote is, "Always be a first-rate version of yourself, instead of a second-rate version of someone else." That is what I hope to do here and in ever aspect of my life.

Snow is her first name!

And White is her last! Who knew? Whatever After is a new series by the wonderful Sarah Mlynowski and Fairest of All (or Mirror, Mirror, the goodreads site says, so I am not sure what the official title is) is the first in the series, due out in May.
This is fractured fairy tale kind of deal with sweet twists. Granted, I am already a huge Sarah M. fan and so I knew I would love it, but even if this had been my first of her books, I would love it.
Abby and her brother have just moved to a new house in a new town and their new house has a very interesting mirror in the basement. Brother and sister are sucked into the mirror and end up in fairy tale land where they meet Snow. This is an original and hilarious twist on an old tale. Abby is extremely likable, as is her brother Jonah. I am so looking forward to recommending this series to lots of kids and I know it will be a hit!
