Cameron Jace’s The Grimm Diaries Prequels completely flips the common view of fairy tales.  Jace explores not only bits of older tales and historical information but also weaves much of her imagination into these dark tales.  The reader will never view Snow White, Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, the Evil Queen or even Jack in the Beanstalk the same way again.Jace cleverly mixes history and modern day together as she takes us on a fantastical journey with some of the most famous fairy tale characters.  We also encounter new and interesting characters along the way.  Jace masterfully creates a credible world with believable characters.I enjoyed the uniqueness of each story as Jace allowed each character to tell his or her story from their point of view, or even from another character’s point of view.I highly recommend The Grimm Diaries Prequels.  It was very riveting, and I could barely put it down.  I can barely wait to read the continuation of the tales.  The prequels are only an introduction to what is to come, and Jace has already given us an addicting flavor, as we wait for the full feast.
