Literary Essay to Unenchanted by Chanda Hann

     As I was looking to my blog, I noticed that Unenchanted by Chanda Hann was not in a sophisticated way with themes and ideas/evidence. Indeed it was my first post. The protagonist Mina the main character is a unique girl. Mina is powerful, she is clumsy but she has power. I don't mean the kind of magical powers but power from your heart. If you want to do something you have to, have power to do it.  Mina is trapped in a curse. It was decades when her ancestors discovered a way to another plane. The fae plane. It's a plane unique from the earth. Her ancestors were curse, in order for the curse to destroyed each Grimm alive at the time period was to finish a quest. This quest included finishing fairy tales. To trap these fairy tales they need a special book the grimorie book. It was a unique book that trapped the fairy tales that each Grimm completed. Mina is a 15year old teenage high school student who lives with her mom and 8th year old brother. She is very clumsy, messy and lives on top of a Chinese restaurant and wears discounted vintage clothes. After her father died because of the curse her mother works long hours to fed them.
     As the story goes on Mina tries to end it with power. She is powerful to end the fairy tales and break the curse. Also if she doesn't end it she'll die. She is also using her best power to end the story because of her brother. If she doesn't finish it, her brother will be the next Grimm to trap in the curse. Mina wants to protect her family and the ones she loves and she has the power. For example she has finished 3 fairy tales and it's not easy for a teenager.
    Mina  also has a crush on a cute popular guy in school. Brody is perfection with blue eyes and curly blond hair. After saving his life from death and that's when the story begins her emotions are mixed up. She doesn't know if it's right to like him and specially with the curse going on. Brody asks Mina out however,Mina wants to, but the curse keeps her from it.She doesn't want to die and lead her brother to the curse. Mina says yes and goes to the dance with him in which is a tragic when she gets involve with the story. She gets kidnap and Brody saves her however, the story made him forget her and Mina's heart breaks when he doesn't even remember their first kiss. Mina still has enough power to end the story now. Not even losing her boyfriend will keep her from ending the curse.
   Overall, Mina has enough power to finish the story, this is also like fighting herself to hope. Mina Grimm is a powerful girl after losing her boyfriend. She wants the best for her brother and doesn't want him to get involve with the story. She is powerful enough to finish it and destroy it. Mina is a unique girl with power that wants the best for her family and finish the curse.
