Sadie: An Amish Retelling of Snow White by Sarah Price

Sadie is the third book in the Amish fairy tale series. Sadie is the retelling of Snow White. Like Snow White Sadie has an evil step-mother. Her step-mother wanted so much to bear a child and blamed Sadie for all her infertility. She was quite jealous of Sadie's youth and would do anything to get her out of the way. In the story of Snow White you have the poison apple. No poison apples her but an allergy to apples. The step-mother was quite evil and you would not believe all the horrible things she did to Sadie. I think her father should have a more of a backbone. And then is the friendly Amish gentlemen that she meets at the edge of the woods. Could this be her prince charming?

I have enjoyed all the books in the series which are quick reads. I wish the author would write some more re-telling of fairy tales into Amish fiction. Perhaps Sleeping Beauty?

Thanks to Kensington Books and Netgally for providing me an e-book to read and review. Sadie is due to be published on September 25, 2018.
