For generations, the Frost family has run the Museum of Magical and Rare Artifacts, handing down guardianship from mother to daughter, always keeping their secrets to family only. Gathered within museum s walls is a collection dedicated to the Grimm fairy tales and to the rare items the family has acquired: Cinderella s glass slipper, Snow White s poisoned apple, the evil queen s magic mirror, Sleeping Beauty s enchanted spinning wheel...Seventeen-year-old Bianca Frost wants none of it, dreaming instead of a career in art or photography or...well, anything except working in the family s museum. She knows the items in the glass display cases are fakes because, of course, magic doesn't really exist. She s about to find out how wrong she is.

Grown men are not supposed to be bowled over by novels clearly written for young (and likely female) audiences. I have the pleasure of being in a writer's group with Ms. DeJesus and when a chance came along to purchase the Kindle version of First Frost on a holiday bargain, well, I had to go for it. I had some extra credits on my Amazon Christmas gift card and said to myself, "What the heck?"Having previously read the synopsis for First Frost - as well as a few blog reviews - I figured it would be kind of a girly fairy tale with a twist or two. From what I'd seen and heard, there was enough to interest me. I write in the fantasy genre and fairy tales are, at heart, fantasy; so...First and foremost, First Frost is an excellent novel. It is well written with engaging characters and a tight, well-defined plot. The pacing is perfect; at no point in the story did I say to myself, "That's bogus! Character X would never be able to pull that off," or anything of the sort. The growth of Bianca Frost, the story's main protagonist is beautifully written and despite my rather gruff, public pooh-poohing of modern, young adult fiction, I was bowled over by what a great book First Frost is.No novel is perfect and I could list a couple of things that might have annoyed me but at the end of the day I would merely be nit picking. One thing I've noticed while reading a lot of independently published fiction over the last few years is that the books universally have a smattering - to a lesser or greater degree - of spelling and/or grammatical errors. I've read some brilliant stories that are able to overcome the author's obvious faux pas and still be good. In the case of First Frost, while there are a few grammatical errors, they are minimal and by the halfway point in the story I had forgotten about the ones I'd noted and didn't discover any more. This could be because there aren't any later in the tale - or it could be because the book is such a splendid read that I failed to even note them. I think I'll settle on the latter.I highly recommend First Frost and can't wait for the soon-to-be released sequel!Just don't tell anyone ;-)

By carsonbuckingham This is one terrific fairy tale in which modern times spill over into the Fae world of "Everafter," where most of the story takes place. We begin with a museum full of fairy tale artifacts--how can you go wrong with that? Rose and Bianca Frost run the place. Bianca is Rose's 17 year-old misfit daughter who doesn't feel like she belongs . . . anywhere. Her father vanished ten years prior under mysterious circumstances which Rose refuses to discuss.However, one night, Rose discovers her mother and a strange old lady "communicating" in the back yard, and it is after this that Rose is enlightened about her past, what really happened to her father, her family history, and who she is. It's a lot to take in. When Rose is spirited away to Everafter, and her safe return depends upon an old book, Bianca and her best friend, Ming, opt, not to just turn over the book, but to pursue. And from here the story truly becomes wondrous.Please do yourself a favor and buy a copy of this astonishing book. Here there are tears, laughter, adventure, swords, sorcery, true love, suspense, terror, magic, evil, loyalty, courage and the big BAD wolf. That's a lot of bang for your buck! This book will become an old friend, to be taken down with loving hands and read again and again when we find that we need just that little bit of magic, that little bit of courage, in our daily lives on this side of Everafter.

But this isn't a retelling, it is more of an alternate universe to fairy tale land, kind of book. I loved how the worlds were set up. Fairy tales are real and Bianca's family has possibily the coolest museum in the whole world. They have a fairy tale artifacts museum. I would love to go there!So one day Bianca finds out that the stuff at the museum is real and that her family are actually witches that come from a direct line of Snow White. First Frost is a fast paced action adventure with a big time magical twist. I loved seeing all of the various items from the fairy tales and seeing how Bianca used them on her quest. What was her quest? She had to get her mother back from the evil witch. First Frost kind of reminded me of the tv mini series, The Tenth Kingdom or the ABC show Once Upon a Time. I just love the idea of all the fairy tales together and having a modern take on how all of it really went down.Bianca took the news that her family is magical all in stride. At first I thought it was a little unrealistic how easily she was taking in all of the information, but then I stopped to think about it for a minute. She saw actual magic. I guess once you see magic in action, the cat is out of the bag. Plus her friend, jumped on board as soon as she found out as well, BUT she was justifiably nervous in the new land. I thought that she initial reaction was a little unrealistic, but as soon as Ming had time to think things over she reacted how I would have in her shoes. It made me like her a little more.Bianca crosses over to Everafter with a spell. There she meets a prince and Terrance. I liked both of them. I really liked how the prince was kind of cocky and thought he was the best thing since sliced bread, because lets be honest- a prince probably would be spoiled and a little arrogant. I thought that was a nice touch, rather than having the super charming prince that everyone loves.First Frost mixes a bunch of different classic fairy tales together. I thought it was well written, and I loved seeing all of the characters work together and interact. My favorite part was seeing how Bianca would use the artifacts from the museum on her quest. There is even a small, but adorable, romance brewing in the story. Fans of fairy tales should check out First Frost. There is a bit of a cliffhanger to segway into book 2, but I thought overall book 1 was a complete story on its own. I wasn't left completely hanging. This is a great fairy tale adventure.3.5/5*Disclaimer- I got a copy of this book for free in exchange for my honest review. I was not compensated for my review.
