A Frozen Heart

Thoroughly enjoyed this book; gave insight into Hans' motives and thoughts yet never painted him as a victim, also enjoyed seeing it from Anna's perspective and what she was thinking throughout the movie. Also nice to see some extra scenes at the start of the book and in other places. Elizabeth Rudnick did a fantastic job and it was fun to relive the story and get to see some more depth to it.

Says it's from the points of view from Hans, however it is mainly from Hans but also the other characters, which is interesting I thought. Having a look into the mind of Hans is interesting

Brilliant little book lol, got this for my girlfriend and she loves it as she is a disney fan and loves the little twist in these books

this was a gift - I was told it was a good read

So happy with my purchase, thank you

good book!!

Not as good as the others in this genre; just like the film, no twist, no deviation from the original story. Quite disappointing!!

⭐⭐⭐⭐.5 So this was basically the written version of the film but with the added bonus of it being written from both Anna AND Hans' point of view, with a little bit of Elsa thrown in. And I loved it. I've had this one on my shelf for a while and I'm not sure why I waited so long to read it but I chose it as the #BibbidyBobbidyBookClub Disney book choice for January because I wanted a wintry tale. And I'm a big fan of Frozen. I loved knowing more about Hans, his backstory, and what made him so damn evil as I don't think that was made abundantly clear in the film, but in this book it was, and I felt for him... for a second 😂 The only thing missing for me was knowing more about Kristoff and his point of view; I wish he'd been included more. But if you're a fan of Frozen, Disney and young adult books then read this.

Etant une grande fan de Frozen, et d'Anna en particulier, je ne pouvais pas passer à côté de ce livre pour jeunes adultes retraçant le film du point de vue d'Anna et de Hans. Le style est agréable, il se lit vite et pas besoin d'être bilingue pour comprendre le propos :) Si la partie d'Anna fait un peu "revu" (ormis les deux premier chapitres sur son enfance et son adolescence que j'ai trouvé intéressants) puisqu'elle retrace toute l'épopée de la princesse jusqu'à sa soeur Elsa, elle n'en reste pas moins captivante et explique certaines réactions du personnages qui font un peu soudaines dans le film (son attirance folle pour Hans, sa réaction un peu plate lorsqu'elle retrouve Elsa, sa soudaine romance avec Kristoff). La partie de Hans est quant à elle inédite, on en apprend plus sur sa vie dans les Iles du Sud, sa relation avec ses frères, ses plans pour devenir roi...bref, ce livre donne au personnage une profondeur intéressante! En gros: A lire!

Está en excelentes condiciones, para nada maltratado, la sobre cubierta impecable y sin rayones, ni manchas de tinta en la impresión, sin duda un producto que vale su precio si eres coleccionista/fanático de la franquicia Además la entrega fue super rápida

Während ich super interessiert am Inhalt bin und erst die ersten zwei Seiten gelesen habe, muss ich leider auf die Verarbeitung hinweisen, die mich etwas enttäuscht hat. Ansonsten kann ich bis jetzt nur sagen, dass der Schreibstil schön und einfach zu verstehen ist (Frozen war der erste Film den ich zuerst in Englisch sah) und ich Cover und Rückseite bereits liebe.

This book sheds a very interesting light on Hans, the main villain of Frozen. I wouldn't say it makes him sympathetic, only that it helps the reader to understand why he is the way that he is. Anna also gets some growth in the book, but some of her parts were a bit drawn out. I found myself rushing through her chapters to reach Hans, since we didn't see almost any of his story in the movie. His character in the book makes total sense with the movie, very well done. Overall, it was a great read, long enough to enjoy it but not overdone. I hope A Frozen Heart isn't the last we'll see of our Prince Hans.

Questo libro rivisita la trama del film Disney "Frozen" come vista dagli occhi di due dei personaggi, Hans e Anna, e aggiunge alcuni extra e dettagli che nel film non ci sono. E' interessante anche per chi ha già visto il film, perché questa doppia prospettiva (molto ben scritta) permette di vedere l'azione svolgersi simultaneamente dal punto di vista di due persone che hanno prospettive, esperienze di vita e motivazioni molto diverse. Dò solo un 4 perché mi sarebbe piaciuto vedere qualche dettaglio in più su cose avvenute "off screen": ad esempio, c'è una parte molto interessante su come è nato e cresciuto Hans, sulla vita che ha fatto e sul regno da cui proviene, ci sarebbero volute più parti come questa, aggiungono davvero profondità all'ambientazione.
