I picked up this series on a recommendation from a fellow book hoarder and I am so glad I did. This review is on the first two books in the series and I cannot wait to share it with you guys.
UnEnchanted, Bk 1
Mina Grime is unlucky, unpopular and uncoordinated; until she saves her crush's life on a field trip, changing her High School status from loser to hero overnight. But with her new found fame brings misfortune in the form of an old family curse come to light. For Mina is descended from the Brothers Grimm and has inherited all of their unfinished fairy tale business. Which includes trying to outwit a powerful Story from making her it's next fairytale victim.
To break the fairy tale curse on her family and make these deadly occurrences stop, Mina must finish the tales until the very Grimm end.

A YA Grimm spin on classic fairytales...yes please! UnEnchanted is a unique twist on a ever changing Story with a ending that I did not see coming. Not all fairytales end with a happily ever after.

Fairest, Bk 2
Mirror, Mirror, on the wall,
Who is the Fairest of them all?
In the sequel to UnEnchanted, Mina Grime discovers that all is not fair when it comes to the Fae and their tales, especially when they don’t all play by the rules. Barely surviving the Story’s first fairy tale quest, Mina still has hundreds to go before she can end the curse on her family. But a new player arises to challenge Mina while new rules revamp the game she has just barely begun to understand.
All the while, people are mysteriously disappearing, including Jared, whom Mina must finally determine to be friend or foe. And with the loss of her greatest weapon, Mina must try to outwit a deadly hunter. Can Mina survive the most difficult quest yet while protecting those she loves from falling victim to one of the lethal tales of all? Or will she become a pawn when she strikes a bargain with the Queen of Fae?

Book 2 picked up where Book 1 left off. This is a fast paced series loaded with twists and turns at every page. It is definitely not your Disney fairy tales.
Best line ever - - - "The lines of battle have been drawn. Tell your King and Queen to send their best, because this tale is about to be rewritten." Mina to Story
