I have to admit that I enjoyed this book but not as much as I enjoyed Huntress. So, instead of having it enhance this experience I tried to ignore some of what I read in the prequel. I think it is mostly because there was a almost never-ending adventure with the first and only one retold story with ...
You know, I was going to write on how hard it is for me to review a book, and list all the reasons for it, but instead, I think it's confession time. My dear readers: I love Japanese manga.I'm not kidding.I love manga, and I love all sorts of manga - shoujo and shonen, mecha, seinen, paranormal (oh,...
While the plot and writing of this book is good, it is just not for me. Cinderella is not a lesbian! I loved the classic story and for me it was what I hope for for my future. I like romance stories but in a male to female. Not female to female. Just no. Sorry.
I noticed a lot of buzz surrounding this book among authors and readers I respect, so I had high expectations going in. I was disappointed. I found the book very bland, from beginning to end. All of the characters seemed very wooden and/or one-dimensional, and I pretty much just kept reading because...
Left at her cruel stepmother's mercy after her father's death, Ash starts to ignore her mother's old warnings about the fairies. Surely nothing could be worse than the life she has now? Perhaps being stolen away by the dark and dangerous fairy Sidhean wouldn't be such a bad thing? And then she meets...
An enjoyable and original book. I liked the concept of a gay Cinderella story; fairytales are often retold, but this was an idea I haven't seen before. The story was sweet and compelling. The writing was nice, but not all that interesting in my opinion. Also, Ash was a pretty boring character; I wis...
I was intrigued by the twists of this Cinderella re-telling, but I never connected fully with any of the characters, and I didn't believe the setting at all. (Aug. 2010)
Chalk this up for another in the column of, "I really _wanted_ to like it, but."I don't really know where to begin on this one. I think a lot of it comes down to that the book simply tried to do too much in too few pages. We have Ash herself, the mythology of faerie, the mythology of the hunt, the b...
I like it and I would finish reading it by and by, had I more time left to do so. I promised to give it away tomorrow. So I will. It is a retelling of Cinderella that is nicely done, has a new twist and involves dangerous fairies. But not finishing it will not leave me feeling like I missed somethin...
