Wicked Ugly Bad (A Kinda Fairy Tale Book 1)
Wicked Ugly Bad (A Kinda Fairy Tale Book 1) | Cassandra Gannon
5 posts | 8 read | 4 to read
Once Upon a Time
Scarlett Riding is NOT an ugly stepsister. Cinderella is the evil one in the family and Letty is determined to prove it. Unfortunately, thats kinda hard to do from behind bars. After the debacle at the ball, Letty and her sister Dru were dragged off to the Wicked, Ugly and Bad Mental Health Treatment Center and Maximum Security Prison. While Cindys planning her dream wedding, her two stepsisters are being forced to endure life in the dreariest dungeon in the land.
Luckily, Letty has a plan to change that unhappy ending. If she can just get to Prince Charming and prove the glass slipper doesnt fit Cinderellas foot, she can reclaim her life. In order to do that, though, she needs to convince The Big Bad Wolf to lend a hand in organizing a jailbreak.
Marrok Wolf isnt sure what to make of the idealistic redhead in his group therapy sessions. With fifty counts of Badness on his criminal record, Marroks used to being surrounded by crooks and scumbags. Scarlett wants to lecture him about equal rights for trolls! When the little do-gooder comes up with an elaborate plan to break their entire share circle out of prison, though, Marrok is certainly willing to go along with the plot. And not just because he wants to see her naked. The woman may not be wicked, ugly, or Bad, but shes definitely the only one who can save him.
Together with a wicked witch, a timid bridge ogre, an evil prince, and other villains straight out of a storybook, Scarlett and Marrok are about to make sure that Baddies finally have a happily ever after.

Mehso-so

Picked up The Kingpin of Camelot, a fairytale retelling based on a recommendation by Ilona Andrews. I thought the premise sounded crazy but in a fun way. I liked some bits of it, and some of the humor clicked with me. But I found the pace dragging, felt like I kept waiting for things to happen. Also didn't care enough about the characters. Still happy to have tried a new-to-me author in fantasy romance.

MarriedtoMrT The plot of the first one interested me more and looked like it was shorter (less pages). I might give it a try and I'll let you know how it goes! 7y
Chachic @MarriedtoMrT I remember @EloisaJames mentioning that the first one has a lot of typos. Not sure if I'm interested in reading the rest of the author's books! 7y

Still reading Kingpin of Camelot (which @EloisaJames has already finished reading! I'm so slow compared to her 😂). Here's the book with last night's churros and hot chocolate.

I was out the whole day so I didn't have time to read. But here's another shot of my Kindle with a meal I had: seafood savory crepe with cream sauce for dinner.

Chachic @kspenmoll It was yummy.😋 7y
Chachic @Nafiza I have a friend who jokes that she licks her phone's screen to taste the food.😂 7y
Chachic @GatheringBooks Safe bet talaga mapa-savory or dessert crepe pa!🤗 7y
GatheringBooks @Chachic super agree. we always order one of each (savoury and dessert crepe) whenever we visit. 7y
Chachic @GatheringBooks I would have loved to get a La Pinay but I was by myself and busog na after this one.😂 7y
EloisaJames I just read Kingpin and I adored it!! Going backward now. 7y
Chachic @EloisaJames I hope the earlier books are just as fun, please keep me posted!! 7y
EloisaJames Well, the first one was fun. Not as great as the third--and some seriously irritating typos (which I really didn't see in Kingpin--did I miss it?) now I'm reading the second and it's pretty fun too 7y
Chachic @EloisaJames There are some typos in Kingpin that I've noticed but not enough to pull me out of the story. 7y
MarriedtoMrT @EloisaJames How does the second rate? The plot of the first interested me more than the third but your review has me hesitating... 7y
EloisaJames @MarriedtoMrT in the end, I really enjoyed all of them. I think Kingpin is the best (she's improving every book, not so easy!!) 7y

My current read (Kingpin of Camelot, which isn't on Litsy's database) and my cappuccino earlier today. They had Stevia! I actually have packets of Stevia in my bag, but I'm glad they made it easier for me.😂☕ Also got complimented by friends on my flatlay skillzzz for food and book shots.📸📚🍽

Chachic @BookishMarginalia Thank you so much!😃💖 7y
Jinjer Are those cute little things sugar cubes???? Brown & white ones? 7y
Chachic @Jinjer Yep, they're sugar cubes! I've seen several cafes here in Manila and back in Singapore that use sugar cubes. Maybe because they're cute?😉 7y

Queen Guinevere meets Kingpin Midas in this fairytale retelling romance that I never would have come across if it hadn't been recommended by one of my favorite authors, Ilona Andrews. Just started reading it but I'm enjoying it so far! Feels like a refreshing and different take on how fairytales are retold. Sigh, why do I keep buying new books when I should be reading the ones that I already own?😂😭

MarriedtoMrT What an interesting premise! 7y
EloisaJames Interesting! 7y
Chachic @MarriedtoMrT @EloisaJames Ilona reviewed it on their blog: http://www.ilona-andrews.com/kingpin-of-camelot/ It sounded pretty crazy but in a funny and interesting way so I decided to give it a try. 7y
EloisaJames I had such a wonderful day reading Kingpin yesterday---thank you!!! 7y
Chachic @EloisaJames Oh wow, you are such a fast reader! I haven't even finished the book yet.😂😂 So glad to hear you enjoyed it.👌 7y
