The Forgotten Fairytales by Angela Parkhurst #BookTour & Exclusive Author Guest Post

Genre: YA Fantasy

Release Date: February 10th 2014

Summary from Goodreads:

Once upon a time, seventeen-year-old Norah Hart believed in the lure of fairytales and happily ever afters. That was before she was forced to live in a fairy tale nightmare.

A psychotic, couture-clad, shoe obsessed Princess. A not-so-charming, alcoholic Prince. A hot Big Bad Wolf that she absolutely cannot fall for—no matter how well he kisses.

If Norah had known she’d be attending a boarding school for the nut job reincarnations of fairytale characters, she would have insisted on going to Moscow with her father. But getting out isn’t as easy as she thought. Especially once Norah realizes she, too, is a storybook character.

An Unknown. The first one in over one hundred years. Soon Norah learns she has the ability to rewrite the stories, putting everyone’s Happily Ever After in jeopardy. Some princesses will do whatever it takes to protect their endings. Even if it means betraying the one closest to you.

Exclusive Post From Angela Parkhurst:

First off, I am so excited to be here today! Thank you so much for having me.

When I first started writing The Forgotten Fairytales, I was working an easy office job. I’d finish my work fast and spend time writing or browsing Pinterest. Anyone who’s been on Pinterest knows it sucks you in and before you know it, it’s hours later and you’ve pinned an entire imaginary wardrobe and a list of recipes you’ll never make. In between the unrealistic food and clothes I’ll never wear, I found inspiration for my book. Character inspiration, locations, Cinderella’s shoe collection—I think that was my favorite!

On top of everything, I was able to find characters to fit the ones in my head, so without further ado, I’ll present the “dream cast” of The Forgotten Fairytales.

Let’s start with our supporting ladies.

Kate (Goldilocks) – Britt Robertson
Desiree – Jessica Lowndes – Desiree is Norah’s villainous friend.
April – Elle Fanning – Norah’s half sister

Thee Princess posse, please meet your resident “Mean Girls”:

Danielle (Cinderella) – Dianna Agron
Pearl (Ariel) – Debby Ryan
Claire (Tinkerbelle) – Dove Cameron
Jen (Jasmine) – Nina Dobrev

Now, my favorite part! The guys.

Wolf (The Big Bad Wolf) – Kellan Lutz
Finn (Prince Eric) – Nick Jonas – because YUM!
James (Prince Charming) – Liam Hemsworth – because no movie is complete with a Hemsworth brother!Last, but not least, the leading lady herself, Miss Norah Hart.

Blake Lively is a classic beauty and I’d personally love to see her in a role where she kicks ass. So that’s the core cast for The Forgotten Fairytales, at least in book one! I look forward to hearing what you think, especially after reading it.

Thanks again for having me! This was fun!
