Interpretation As Books The Midnight Dancers (A Fairy Tale Retold #4)

Why live in the light, when the night seems so irresistible?

Rachel Durham, 18, is tired of her father and stepmother’s staid morality and pristine prosperity. The summer of her senior year, she’s more than ready for a walk on the wild side, and the door opens - literally - when she and her eleven sisters and stepsisters discover a secret passageway out of their historic home on the Chesapeake Bay. At night, boys in boats and a forbidden island beckon from the shore, and Rachel and her sisters jump aboard. The night becomes Rachel’s true world, and her daytime life becomes a disposable mask. Her puzzled father tries to tow his daughters back into line by enlisting the help of Paul, a med student with a seasonal job juggling at the town festival. But Paul realizes that simply blocking the girls from their midnight parties isn’t going to solve the family’s problems. So he embarks on a risky balancing act to gain the girls’ trust – and to make Rachel see that splitting her life between night and light is a dangerous dance.

Column Regarding Books The Midnight Dancers (A Fairy Tale Retold #4)

Regina Doman has always made an effort to illustrate in the Fairy Tale Novels how the fantastic can reveal the true reality, and she has accomplished that admirably in the first three installments. The magical collides with the previously mundane, transforming our perception of our lives. The Midnight Dancers, however, almost makes the other novels seem clunky because it achieves a realism the others do not.The plot of The Midnight Dancers proposes no convoluted mystery. Its hero, Paul, is a

I said in my review of Waking Rose how it was my favorite novel in the first three set (that sounds weird, but the first 3 books were always centered around the same characters), but this book is my favorite out of the whole series. The Midnight Dancers has incredible torture scenes (What? I'm an author; I can be a little scary like that sometimes...and I read torture scenes in middle school and over the years I was accustomed to them), which made it my favorite. I mean, it's so action-packed!

I needed a lighter, fun novel to read, and "The Midnight Dancers" met the criteria. Although the themes were serious and some of the scenes intense, it was still a book that I could get caught up in and simply enjoy. I appreciated the themes of goodness and beauty that Regina Doman wove throughout the book. I also like that she continuously has very strong male characters in her fairy-tale novels. These guys are solid, role-model types. The kind of men I pray my sons grow up to be. Paul Fester

While Blance and Bear are still my favorites, I enjoy Doman's Fairy Tale Retold series. Not only does she re-imagine fairy tales in modern day she deftly incorporated catholic theology into the story. I think my favorite part was in the middle when Paul was telling Rachel about how the devil misleads men into thinking women are objects instead of people.**I'm revising my original rating up to 5 stars because 6 months later, I'm still thinking about this book

This review is not a spoiler, but rather a semi-embarressingly bad review from a younger version of myself. I have a personal policy not to rewrite reviews or changes ratings of books I have not read in a while, so I'm stuck with this until a reread.(view spoiler)[The Midnight DancersBy Regina DomanCompleted 3-17-143.5 starsI have not read any other books in this series before this one. And from reading the reviews, I made out okay. The first three are related, but this one not so much. Now Im

I loved it. There. Thats my review. If only all young adult authors would write such prose. If only other authors could read one of Domans novels and see that its possible to deal with current and relevant teen issues without being crass. Or rude. And even *gasp* manage to portray genuine truth and beauty without talking down to the reader, or sounding sickly sweet. This is a book any teen can read and relate to. Its a book that this Mom enjoyed. And why not? It stays true to the Grimm fairy
