Synopsis:
A dark and eerie retelling of Snow White from Lili St. Crow,
New York Times bestselling author of the Strange Angels
series.
Sixteen-year-old Camille doesn’t remember her life before she was adopted by the powerful Vultusino family—the missing childhood years that left her scarred and silent. Now she lives a life
of luxury, protected by the supernatural Mafia Vultusinos, specially Nico, her adopted brother.
But Cami knows that she is not really Family. She is a mortal with a past that lies buried in trauma. And it’s not until a mysterious boy approaches her and reveals scars of his own that Cami begins
to uncover the secrets of her past . . . to find out where she comes from and what danger she now finds herself in.

Why i'm waiting:
You may have heard of Lili St. Crow before because she's the author of the Strange Angels series; the series sounds really interesting. I haven't read any of her works, so, i thought i would read this. And even if hadn't heard of Lili St. Crow before i would have still planned to read it because i love fairytale re-tellings. And it's a series! ^^ Cover love, as well!
Nice pick! I'm not a fan of Lili's series at all, I couldn't even get through book 2 but this could be good!
ReplyDeleteGreat pick! I was sold at "supernatural Mafia"! :)

This sounds so good! I love the "Mafia" angle and wonder how they're going to twist in Snow White. It's not exactly wearable, but that's a gorgeous dress too. :) Wonderful choice!
ReplyDeleteWoah sounds like a dark retell in got Snow White! It sounds excellent and I hope you get it soon! :)
