Reflections by Seanan McGuire

Reflections (Indexing, #2)

by Seanan McGuire

“For her to love me, she had to be willing to kill me. Anything else would show that her heart was untrue.”

The struggle against not-so-charming storybook narratives isn’t the only complicating factor in Henrietta “Henry” Marchen’s life. As part of the ATI Management Bureau team protecting the world from fairy tales gone awry, she’s juggling her unwanted new status as a Snow White, dealing with a potentially dangerous Pied Piper, and wrangling a most troublesome wicked stepsister—along with a budding relationship with Jeff, her teammate.

But when a twisted, vicious Cinderella breaks out of prison and wreaks havoc, things go from disenchanted to deadly. And once Henry realizes someone is trying to use her to destroy the world, her story becomes far from over—and this one might not have a happily ever after.

Indexing: Reflections is New York Times bestselling author Seanan McGuire’s continuing new urban fantasy, where everything you thought you knew about fairy tales gets turned on its head.

This book was initially released in episodes as a Kindle Serial. All episodes are now available for immediate download as a complete book.

My Review Of


Indexing by Seanan McGuire



Fairy-tales are real  folks, yes they are real and the ATI Management Bureau is tasked with preventing them to become full blown. Henry aka Snow White is the leader of the team that prevents these fairy-tales called  memetic incursions, from developing into a full blown story which would be catastrophic in an Urban area.  This tale was told almost like a collection of short stories but at the same time had a general plot going on. Sloan was the wicked step sister to Henry's good girl Snow White character. As the story unfolded I became more and more immersed in this world of fairy-tale like characters with their twisted tales. There is a little tiny bit of romance between Henry and Jeff but they are too busy preventing fairy-tales from becoming full blown disasters such as a sleeping beauty causing everyone around her to fall asleep, imagine that happening in NYC??! Or a Cinderella gone homicidal. This was a fun book I quickly downloaded book two from audible since I enjoyed listening to this one so much.
