Relation Supposing Books How Zoe Made Her Dreams (Mostly) Come True
From Sarah Strohmeyer, author of Smart Girls Get What They Want, comes this romantic comedy about one girl's summer job from hell. Think The Devil Wears Prada set in Disney World.When cousins Zoe and Jess land summer internships at the Fairyland Kingdom theme park, they are sure they've hit the jackpot. With perks like hot Abercrombie-like Prince Charmings and a chance to win the coveted $25,000 Dream & Do grant, what more could a girl want?
Once Zoe arrives, however, she's assigned to serve "The Queen"-Fairyland's boss from hell. From spoon-feeding her evil lapdog caviar, to fetching midnight sleeping tonics, Zoe fears she might not have what it takes to survive the summer, much less win the money.
Soon backstabbing interns, a runaway Cinderella, and cutthroat competition make Zoe's job more like a nightmare than a fairy tale. What will happen when Zoe is forced to choose between serving The Queen and saving the prince of her dreams?

How Zoe Made Her Dreams (Mostly) Come True is a lot of fun, but I can't help but compare this with Sarah Strohmeyer's young adult debut, Smart Girls Get What They Want. There's a similar structure to both her books, a deceptively light plot hides a surprising amount of character development and ultimately the kind of message my sister always gets behind, but for a few reasons I think Zoe is a step down from Smart Girls. Not that Zoe isn't good, I just think Smart Girls is better.That isnt to sayCheck out more of my reviews at ***Singing and Reading in the Rain***!How Zoe Made Her Dreams (Mostly) Come True is a handful to say, but it's your perfect summertime read, bringing in a cute romance and a delicious plot. (I'm hungry. Don't bash on my food sensory words) It didn't live up to my expectations completely, mainly because of how high I was holding it, which immediately led to this book's downfall. However, I still enjoyed it immensely and couldn't find anything wrong with it, other
Find this review and others at Lost in Literature!Fairy tales aren't always all giggles and glitter. Not when there's a naughty prince on the loose, breaking rules and causing havoc. Zoe just wants to help her cousin/BFF win the coveted prize, the Dream & Do grant, but with all of these obsticles will she be able to accomplish what she dreams of?Zoe was instantly likeable to me. She was awkward and fidgety and clueless at times, though she succeeded in getting the job done! Then we have
*Review published on Page Turners Blog on 6/1/13**actually 4.5 stars*Okay confession time, I read this story right after we came back from our Disneyland vacation. Our family is hugely obsessed with anything Disney and while we had an amazing time, we did run into one grumpy Disneyland cast member. And it did make me think, how can they keep up that level of happy pretense during their 9-hour shifts? Well, Sarah answered that and more in her perfect-summer-read story, How Zoe Made Her Dreams
3.5 StarsI was intrigued when I heard that this book takes place behind the scenes at a princess themed amusement park. I have always thought that working at one of these places would be a total nightmare and the in and out of costume drama that occurs at Fairlyland definitely provided some twists and turns to this story. While the idea that a park would be staffed almost exclusively by high schoolers is a bit far fetched, it did not take away from my enjoyment of this story at all. There were
HOLY ZOE is all I have to say! Man this book was so hilarious that I had a pain in the side of my stomach from laughing so hard. I had tears running down my cheeks and my son asked me if I was okay. Man I needed a refreshing funny read after I read some serious books. This one book is a MUST READ because poor Zoe she thinks she is getting one thing and she ends up getting another and it is so dam funny because it was like watching Jane By Design the TV show only the boss was one piece of work.
Review first appeared on my blog: Book Addict 24-7I received a copy from Edelweiss in exchange for an honest reviewI absolutely adored Sarah Strohmeyer's How Zoe Made Her Dreams (Mostly) Come True. Strohmeyer's new young adult contemporary novel is funny, touching, romantic, and as whimsical as the Fairyland Kingdom theme park the novel is set in. Zoe, the protagonist, is a teenaged girl who has a very close relationship with her happy go-lucky cousin, Jess. Her growth as a character isn't made
