Description

Kendra Hilferty, the witch that curses Kyle Kingsbury in Beastly, reminisces about her immortal existence—how she discovered she was a witch and the ways she used her powers for good throughout the centuries, but unfortunately her attempts often backfired! With her enduring creativity and wit, Alex Flinn once again takes our favorite fairy tales and turns them on their head. Flinn wraps Kendra’s stories of Hansel and Gretel, The Princess and the Pea, and The Little Mermaid around a modern day version of Cinderella, except the “ugly” stepsister here isn’t quite who you think she is. With dark twists, hilarious turns, and unexpected endings, Bewitching is a contemporary read for fairy tale lovers, fantasy fans and anyone looking for more Alex Flinn!
