I enjoyed the Evil Queen's backstory a lot, but I'm a little disappointed that the twistedness of the story doesn't happen until around the 80% mark. It really wasn't a big part of the plot either. Coming from an adult reader, this also read very YA. I know I'm not the target audience for the book, but I've read a few others in the series that did not feel so obviously YA like this one. In terms of a Snow White retelling, I enjoyed it. But I wouldn't say it was very twisted.
