I've re-read this book more times than I count and it's still amazing every time I read it.The tricky unreliable narrator is written beautifully. Honestly, how hard must it be to write a character with no memory of who she was, with a less than stellar personality and a stunning lack of empathy but ...

I was enthralled with this story from the very beginning. Not only did Leah Cypess pull me in with her writing, but she also delivered a fantastic story. The mystery of Mistwood will leave you guessing until the very end.Isabel wakes up in the forest of the Mistwood and is taken back to the castle t...

If you're looking for a book that has a blend of adventure, fantasy, and magical suspence, then try picking this one up. It's not a maniac pageflipper books like the Hunger Games turn out, but it has it's own pace by which is steps and pulls the reader in deeper, one bit at a time.I cuddled up with ...

This started out so good but then about half way through I just lost interest. I finished the book and am glad it's not a series (or it doesn't appear to be). The ending kind of redeemed the book. But I don't know, I think the author tried to put in too much conspiracy and too many twists and tur...

This book is excellent! I love political fantasies–not books that involve real politics, but ones where people have to decide which side to support.

I really liked this. A great fantasy story with an interesting world and unexpected plot twists. I think what bothered me about it was the main character. She was one of those "I pretend to have no emotions even though I do have them" characters, which I tend to not like. I don't know why. Maybe bec...

I was oddly taken with this book from the very start, and have no idea why it took me so long to read, other than that I'd keep getting sidetracked by other books.Mistwood is a fun and more classic fairytale/fantasy novel than most common publications. It got back to the basics of the genre, and I a...
