It's a fast, clean read with great characters, and I highly recommend it.” “This was such an entertaining story! I shouldn't have started reading it so late in the evening, because I didn't want to put it down to go to sleep…This is a book I can see myself reading several times. I highly recommend The Ugly Stepsister Strikes Back! to anyone (over the age of 12) who wants a YA novel that's a real modern-day fairy tale.” I finished the ~194 novel in one night because I just couldn't go to sleep without knowing the ending! I hope that Sariah comes out with more novels, I know I'll be re-reading this one all the time! She's extremely talented and needs to be talked about. “Sariah Wilson writes like the best of/most popular YA teen fiction/teen romance authors - Sarah Dessen, Jennifer Echols, Susanne Collins, Cassandra Clare. I dare you not to laugh as you read this witty and oh, so, romantic story.” Sariah Wilson captured the back-biting, insecure, hormone-driven, clique-riddled high school atmosphere so perfectl y you'd think she never grew up. Yes, my poor Kindle's battery died and I was attached to a short power cord, contorted in a very uncomfortable position while I read to the end…. “Sariah has written one of the funniest stories I've read in such a long, long time. ~ Julie Coulter Bellon, author of All Fall Down and All’s Fair I thought it was definitely a book I'd recommend to anyone with teenagers or who just want to read a good teen romance.” The voice in the main character, Mattie, makes the whole thing. “Sariah Wilson's new book, The Ugly Stepsister Strikes Back, is hilarious…What follows is a story of fun and romance with some good non-preachy life lessons thrown in. ~ Jordan McCollum, author of Saints & Spies and I, Spy
