Juliet Marillier really works wonders writing this book. Though I almost lose my patience sometimes because of the length of the book, I have to say the plot is wonderfully sketched and perfectly carried out. I believe there is a terribly great deal of planning, and as a reader, I really appreciate ...
Rating: 4.5 Stars Although Heart's Blood is only my second Juliet Marillier novel, I can already count her amongst my favorite authors...ever. Marillier has a distinct style of writing stories about kind, but fierce, female protagonists and tortured romantic interests, creating beautiful love storie...
This book is just amazing!! I just can't help to tell how much i love her stories and the way she writes. I coudn't put it down, i had to keep reading it, and just devour each word.

Marillier succeeds in flooding a very grim story with hope (an embarras...
More of a 2.5 stars as I liked elements, but it was surprisingly longish and dragged. The magic was strange, but the book did have atmosphere. Moody and dark, mysterious as all get out and creepy and spooky. And I was far from sold on the love story, but I brought it along on trip and had nothing el...
Heart's Blood is a gripping tale which captivated my attention from page 1. There is so much about this novel that will please any reader. This enchanting tale is full of magic, romance, and mystery. Based on the legends of Beauty and the Beast, the tale follows Caitrin, a female scribe, as she atte...
