"Welcome to the Forest of Good and Evil, where villains may be heroes and heroes may be villains…it all depends on who you ask.


In the realm of Enchantia, creatures of legend still exist, magic is the norm, and fairy tales are real.


Raised in the human world, Everly Morrow has no idea she’s a fairy-tale princess—until she begins to commune with mirrors. Soon, a horrifying truth is revealed. She is fated to be Snow White’s greatest enemy, the Evil Queen.


With powers beyond her imagination or control, Everly returns to the land of her birth. There, she meets Roth Charmaine, the supposed Prince Charming. Their attraction is undeniable, but their relationship is doomed. As Everly faces disasters and betrayals, giving in to her wicked side proves more tempting. Can she resist, or will she become the villain she was born to be?" - Summary from paperback edition of The Evil Queen by Gena Showalter


Michaela: I am excited to share this book with Jacilyn for our Summer Book Exchange! I read this book in the constant search for entertainment that was 2020, so I am interested to see if I love this book as much now as I did then. It is a retelling which we all know that I love. This book takes retellings a step further, in this stories land called Enchantia fairytales are considered to be prophecies and you never know how you may fit into the story!
