Description
Gr 4–7—Circe, identified as the Enchantress from Disney's Beauty and the Beast, sets out to
right the wrongs caused by the three women who brought her to life: witches Lucinda, Ruby, and
Martha. Her companion Snow White has her own mysteries to explore, and they receive advice
from The Fairy Godmother, Nanny, and Oberon. Circe's travels lead her and Snow White to
information about the evil witch Nestis and her role in Circe's own family past. The final scene of
this sixth book in the series involves Circe and her family and Snow White and her mother
Grimhilde, with a cliff-hanger ending. Even die-hard fans will find it difficult to enthuse over this
walk on Disney's dark side. Far too many characters with similar titles, roles, and motivations
cause the story to lumber along. The first half of the book consists of uninspiring dialogue and
lengthy reflections on character backstories that do not provide much clarity or drama. Snow and
Circe sit around for over 100 pages before they commit to any action. The backstory often seems
written to explain away inconsistencies or fill in gaps rather than to entertain and inform.
Exclamation-ridden dialogue reeks with tedious platitudes. The earnest effusions of Snow and
Circe don't line up with the edgy exploration of the villainous Disney characters or the intended
middle grade audience. VERDICT Avoid unless you have readers eager for every Disney book in
existence.—Caitlin Augusta, Stratford Library Association, CT Read more Serena Valentino
