Grab Instantly Fangs And Stilettos Originated By Anthony DiFiore Supplied As Digital Format

it was a fun read! Fashion is run by the supernatural Anthony DiFiore has created a fantastic world where it is just crazy enough to be true, Not the most fashion literate and burned out on cheesy attempts at the supernatural, I was surprised how easily I was caught up in the world of Fangs and Stilettos.
Humor, intrigue, and a fresh view of the supernatural carry you along the whirlwind adventure of the twins, Natasha and Marciano,

Sent on the trip of a lifetime, fashion week in New York, theyearold twins learn of their lineage, powers, and themselves, They find themselves suddenly in the center of glamor, high fashion, conspiracies, danger, and an unknown world of vampires, oracles, and magic that includes ayearold old curse, I do not want to spoil any of the surprises, so I hate to tell much more,

Realistic relationships among believable yet wacky characters makes the story comes to life, Be it the overthetop Candice Brown, the powerful fashion icon with the ability to control plastic, who is trying to find a looppole in the curse and expose the whole supernatural world, or the mysterious and sexy vampire who is there to save the day or is he Opps I almost said too much each character is full of life.


Anthony DiFiores writing lets you join the adventure allowing the reader to immerse themselves you can almost hear the merchants hawking their wares at you in the Dutch Market.
The reader is carried along on the adventure, laughing, crying, and intrigued the whole way, Fangs and Stilettos is appropriate for all that are young at heart, The only monsters in the closet are checking out your shoes,

Anthony DiFiore, a Chicago author, has done what so many others have tried, He has taken humor, mystery, and the supernatural and created a fresh new world I cannot wait to visit again, I look forward to next in this creative series,

Fangs and Stilettos was a very refreshing read, Its a supernatural read thats a bit far from the norm, DiFiores take on supernaturals and how they came to be was brilliant I couldnt stop reading because I wanted to know what he had to say about each supernatural being.
The hierarchy and how the supernaturals are bound gave a very interesting twist to the whole plot as well, The characters were intriguing and big time fashionistasMarciano, more so then the others I learned a lot of things regarding people who love fashion, There was also plenty of comic relief that had me bursting out laughing during various parts of the reading Marciano, being the most notable hilarious character on that note, even with the circumstances everyone was going through.
I was also very curious to learn about the Twins powers and how they reacted to other supernaturals but reading about them just made it even more sad to know that so many of their kind had died before they actually stood up for themselves, it just seemed like the others were very easily beat.
Something that showed DiFiores originality and left a pleasant mark was the names he gave the supernaturals, like the Colors or thirteensit was all interesting, Fangs and Stilettos was also a great read because of the relationships between the characters, it was a nice thing to see and by that I mean the familial bond, by blood or not was effortlessly felt.
Another thing though, I am not sure if one should be pleased or not by the way DiFiore portrayed Candice Brown and the way she treated people, including her daughter.
To read about a Villain as nonchalantly cold as she is was remarkable, he did a very good job because I dont know if its just me or not, but throughout the reading I had to keep reminding myself that Candice was the bad guy even while reading about the terrible things she was capable of.
Even though Fangs and Stilettos was a very appealing read especially with the world of supernaturals and powers DiFiore gave them, the slight cliff hanger at the end sucks big time for me because now I am desperately waiting for the next book in the series.

I always knew there was something evil and supernatural about the fashion industry and this book proves it!

This was a really fun and quirky read with both characters you love or just love to hate.
The humor and the danger kept this story interesting interesting enough that I kept promising myself I'd stop when I got to the next "stiletto", but instead I'd have to keep reading to see what happened next.


Marciano was entertaining and somewhat annoying more of a "girl" to me than his two sisters, I couldn't help but enjoy his character, And Candice Brown I couldn't help but picture Candice Bergen the character Kathy in "Miss Congeniality" throughout the whole story,

Written as a young adult novel, this story will appeal to both the teen as well as the adult, Make sure to add this to your reading list it is the perfect read for those long drab winter nights when you need a smile and some excitement!

I received this book through the Firstreads program.
With a plot about vampires and other supernatural creatures running the fashion industry, the reader is already prepped for a zany adventure, And I admit, it's easy to gobble up this book as a tasty confection and miss all the nutritional value, But DiFiore doesn't cater to a youthful audience so much as create oneon the tail end of this book I guarantee you'll have a lighter heart and a quicker smile.


This is the sort of YA I want my children to read, DiFiore uses a deft hand to weave the healthy and wholesome into an irreverent plot, His language is punchy and modern it took me half the book to realize there was no swearing, Many of the characters are or lookyears old, but youth is neither worshiped nor derided in this book, Instead, it is appreciated in the natural context of aging, Beauty is determined by confidence and selfexpression more than good genes though a wellplaced dimple helps! Gay relationships are normalized and then recontextualized into the supernatural format, reminding the reader that acceptance is not yet universal.
Meanwhile there is laughter, action, and squealing over designer shoes,

The fantasy is accessible and immediately translates to real life, As soon as you enter into DiFiore's supernatural world it's easy to start spotting the mummies and werewolves on the train in real life especially if you live in a city! Even the fashion isn't a stumbling block because it is recognized as being both serious artistic expression as well as ridiculous, overthetop flotsam.
The whole book is written much like a fashion statement: you can take it as a pretty piece of pop culture, or you can look behind the seams to appreciate the social commentary.
Either way, this is a book for anyone who wants both a good laugh and substance, I noticed a typo on pageseven paragraphs down, third sentence, last word, It says "ow" it should be "own", Also I noticed a misuse of the word "appropriate" on page, fourth paragraph, second sentence,

Good story line with the ending open for more titles,
I did have a issue with Aunt Monique, It first she was right there for the twins then she seemed to care more about her "spa time" than helping, Then she was back to caring, Choose a side Aunt Monique,
The riddle in Central Park, . . the three woman are so much smarter than answering that way, I can understand if you wanted to be funny about it but it seemed a little much when Maude's kids are in trouble,

Over all, It's a good time killer for a YA at heart but a YA would like the silliness amp random things said it this book,

LOVE THE COVER!!!

I received this book for free through Goodreads First Reads, This book leaves the reader right in the thick of it, so I couldn't give away the ending if I tried! I have to wait anxiously for the sequel to find out what happens to twins Natasha and Marciano, their sister Betty, and all the other colorful and sassy characters in DiFiore's world of “Fangs and Stilettos.
” The premise is this: the world's fashion industry is secretly run by supernaturals, An ancient curse forced every being with superhuman powers to work in fashion, Fashion can be so freaky, so weird, so fresh and

strange, that I found myself believing that Uggs were invented by werewolves so that they could hide their hairy feet, and that zombies really did work on the assembly lines.
I thought of Lady Gaga and Donatella Versace and I didn't have to stretch my imagination too much to consider them a robot and a mummy, respectively,
The organization that enforces the curse on all supernaturals is called Caligae, and the current leader is hatching a terrible plan in an effort to break the curse.
She is the bossy, horrendous, Candice Brown, famous for developing a highend brand of sweatpants and sweatsuits think: Juicy Couture and having so much plastic surgery that she's more plastic than human.
She has the ability to control plastic with her mind, and her super model daughter is an Oracle that can stop time, Put these two snobby New York fashionistas together with Natasha and flamboyant Marciano, two fashionobsessed twins from Philadelphia who don't know they are supernaturals, add a flirtatious mummy, and a vampire love interest, and you've got quite a fun read.

I had a great time reading this book, and I found myself reverting back to my fashionobsessed teenage years, soaking in the lush descriptions of underground supernatural department stores that sell designer coffins!, New York glamor and the secret passages that are only accessed from within a Versace store by squeezing a designer sneaker on the shelf.

One of the many treats of this book was the dialogue, It was just so goofy, Marciano really can't keep his mouth shut and tends to blurt out very inappropriate comments with the sass that only a young man who owns over one hundred pairs of shoes can.
I hope he and Cedric get together in the sequel, The characters often say things that are a parody of themselves, At one point, Candice announces: “I am Candice Brown, I own an island, a private jet, and all the toilets in my home are made out of gold, Maybe that last part isn't true, or the first part, or the second, but here's the real laugh: I put threehundreddollar pairs of sweatpants in my clothing stores and people buy them.
Now who's laughing at whom” Little jabs at the ridiculousness of fashion are peppered all over this goofball book, First let me state I won this book on goodreads and was thrilled to get an opportunity to see what this book had to offer, I would have to list it as a young adult read, It 's a new and humorous twist on the paranormal community with colorful characters that could be part of your family, If your in the mood to be entertained this book will not disappoint, Not to spoil anything but the ending leaveson opening for a second book which I all be buying when it comes out, So to sum up a fun easy read that will make you laugh, When I first got this book I wasnt sure what to expect, The title of the book “Fangs and Stilettos” doesnt really give you a clue about what this book was suppose to be about, The synopsis on the back of the book did even less to inform me about what I was going to be reading, With that said, the synopsis nor the title do justice for the book, The plot of this story was so different yet amazing at the same time, Never have I read a book like this, Theres always the book or series that only concentrates on one type of supernatural being this book brings all of them together in a consistent and cohesive story line.


This is your unorthodox supernatural story, So if youre thinking Anne Rice then dont, The closest thing that I can compare it to is the Night World series but that took four novels, “Fangs and Stilettos” stands so well on its own, However, this book is only going to appeal to certain readers, There was only one part of the book where I found myself bored and almost made me stop reading the book entirely because I found that in that moment of the book was to “gay” or “girly” this moment consisted of spa day and makeovers though the book is surrounded by the fashion world.
After I was done with these part which lasted aboutpages it was smooth, exciting reading from there, I thought the main villain was a little over the top, think Jim Carrey as the Riddler, dramatic and in some ways comical and psycho at the same time.
Overall, its a tale worth reading because its so different from the conventional tales of the supernatural, I was impressed and other readers will be too,
REVIEW ORIGINALLY POSTED ON sitelinkREADER VIEWS KIDS

I have read my fair share of the recently popular supernaturalthemed books, ranging from the “Twilight” series to “The Zombie Survival Guide,” some of which were well done, and some of which were.
. . less excellent to say the least, “Fangs and Stilettos” by Anthony DiFiore definitely fell on the excellent side of the spectrum, and was a fun take on vampires and “supernaturals” a general term for zombies, vampires, werewolves, mummies, oracles, and amazonions, to name a few of the categories.


In “Fangs and Stilettos,” supernaturals have been cursed to never reveal their identities and to only ever work in the fashion industry, all to keep the supernaturals from wreaking havoc on the rest of the world.
No one is sure what would happen if a supernatural tried to break the curse, but the international organization Caligae polices all supernaturals to make sure no one ever needs to find out.


Of course, where there is power, there are powerhungry people, and this is only too true at Caligae, The leader of Caligae has a plot to unleash her own power and attain ultimate dictatorial world domination, Into this backdrop are placed an unskilled, naïve set of teenagers, just realizing their places in the chaotic fashion industry, As naïve as they are, they do not have the same fear of Caligae and may be the only people capable of saving the world,

Throughout the book, I found the plot unpredictable, and felt myself carried along by the twists and turns, Many young adult books tend to be driven by weak characters, written with formulaic plots, or dominated by silly love triangles “Fangs and Stilettos” had strong characters, and it was refreshing to see a plot driven, yes, partially by these strong characters, but also by dramatic schemes of world domination.


The writing was also excellent, I find that there are two types of good writers those you notice and those you dont, While I enjoy basking in witty word play, it is also enjoyable to forget that I am reading and just enjoy the story, a task DiFiore did excellently, The pictures painted were vivid, the characters believable, and the story central,

I would recommend “Fangs and Stilettos” to a variety of readers in the latemiddleschool to highschool range, particularly those intrigued by fantasy, but looking for a lighthearted unique take.
Of course, anyone in love with fashion, or head over heels with supernaturals should also read “Fangs and Stilettos, ” Anthony DiFiore has crafted a perfect vacation read, just in time for summer, .
