Review Detail

Mirabelle is a runaway who feels the need to find her parents' graves. Unfortunately she ends up meeting the wrong people living completely manipulated lives who either wish to do her harm or destroy her prior life. She's escaped her godmothers' super protective arms just to find herself stuck in an inevitable destiny (with it comes a deadly lover, a mysterious, hot, annoying, blue-spike-haired boy, and a sweet destiny-fulfilling knight). This is where fairy tales turn into horror stories, fairies turn into manipulative monsters, lovers turn into murderers, bad guys turn into heroes, and princesses turn into every day teenagers.
Kill Me Softly was a great read. I was biting my finger nails and laughing out loud half the time.
It was truly remarkable how fairy tales can be twisted so much. And some new tales come into play as well. There's also a sort of square-love thingy. Three boys all in love with Mara. Sadly, two of them are brothers cursed forever and the other one is awaiting to fulfill his destiny. This book was truly amazing. The story line really grabs attention.
The only faults were that Mara was a little bit too stubborn and completely blind to a jerk's charming appearance. She acted like a love-sick puppy half the time, but the rest of the story made up for it.
I really recommend this story to anyone who enjoys a good twist. It's definitely a worthy read.
