I read this when it first came out and really enjoyed it, so thought I'd re-read in preparation for the sequel that just came out. Hrm. Sadly, it's much less good than I remember it being. Still an awesome concept, but the execution is poor. There's so little about breaking the actual curse, and s...
TW: Rape On the cover it says: A haunting, thrilling romantic puzzle. Just read it I say, don' read it... This is not haunting. And this doesn't have a single "romantic puzzle" bone in it's body!! From time to time I read a book with a story that it's so bad, that it leaves me in a fit of te...

Interesting idea for a book and I thoroughly enjoyed it. There was a very sweet love story in the book that I appreciated and found somewhat refreshing. I had the song Scarborough Fair(the version by Celtic duo Rua) running through my head the whole time I was reading it and it's still there.

Lucy must complete the three impossible tasks before her own daughter is born in order to break the curse. Here's what I li...
I know three stars isn't the most helpful rating in the world, but I just feel like parts of this book were worth at least four and other parts made me want to abandon it completely. It will suit a few people's tastes perfectly, I'm sure, but I wouldn't rush out to recommend it to the masses.The sto...
Read this for book club. None of us could figure out why it had been recommended to us, or why it was nominated for awards. I don't think there has ever been another selection for our book club that was so universally disliked. Reasons: *Offensive, retrograde, disturbing implications for the young w...
I read this book two years ago [when I was a freshman] and I clicked on this book just now, and then as soon as I read her name, I remembered reading it. This book was ASTOUNDING. And amazing, and I remember that I couldn't put it down. I'm just in love with it, so much. And I really need to find t...
This was a little creepy for my taste but I definitely enjoyed reading Impossible.When I first read the synopsis of this book, I expected it to be full of fantasy; with all the talk about an Elfin Knight who wants to own every one of the Scarborough girls, I expected some mischief from him or someth...
