Imagine you are in an insane asylum. And that's all you ever know. Everyday, its a constant routine with breakfast, therapy, recreation, etc. Imagine your kiss broke the only friend you had at this insane asylum. Your anger is your weakness. And he is not allowed to see you. That is the circumstances in which Snow faces. 
 First kisses sometimes wake slumbering princesses, undo spells, and spark happily ever afters. 
 Mine broke Bale. (Stealing Snow) 
 Seventeen-year-old Snow has spent her life locked in Whittaker Psychiatric--but she isn't crazy. And that's not the worst of it. Her very first kiss proves anything but innocent...when Bale, her only love, turns violent. 
 Despite Snow knowing that Bale would never truly hurt her, he is taken away--dashing her last hope for any sort of future in the mental ward she calls home. With nowhere else to turn, Snow finds herself drawn to a strange new orderly who whispers secrets in the night about a mysterious past and a kingdom that's hers for the taking--if only she can find her way past the iron gates to the Tree that has been haunting her dreams. 
 Beyond the Tree lies Algid, a land far away from the real world, frozen by a ruthless king. And there too await the River Witch, a village boy named Kai, the charming thief Jagger, and a prophecy that Snow will save them all. (Goodreads). 
 I loved this book! It was so good. It has action, deceit, adventures, romance, and vengeance. My first thoughts were "I don't wanna read this book. It looks eh." DON'T JUDGE THIS BOOK BY ITS COVER!!! I was swept away once again by Danielle Paige. Her writing is just phenomenal. READ THIS BOOK!
