I'm a little iffy on the love triangle, but sounds like one of those "it's obvious who she will end up with" love triangles, which drive me less crazy.Janicuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17680150271398341576noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1214401809446305406.post-46671844284252926822012-02-18T11:22:24.772-05:002012-02-18T11:22:24.772-05:00I've just come from reading a rather negative ...I've just come from reading a rather negative review of this over at Charlotte's Library, so I'm not entirely sure what to think. I am somewhat picky about my fantasy... so I'll probably wait until this is on the regular shelves at the library.<br /><br />Have you read Robin McKinley's version of the Robin Hood story? It was probably my least favorite McKinley (is such a thing possible?), but still a creditable retelling.Ceceliahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02249223364936344560noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1214401809446305406.post-3738419332887755752012-02-17T14:58:46.846-05:002012-02-17T14:58:46.846-05:00I'm definitely really looking forward to readi...I'm definitely really looking forward to reading this book.

I guess I was hoping that it would be mostly about the adventure aspects of the story. I haven't read too many dialect prose books but it really worked for me in Blood Red Road so I bet this one will work as well. <br /><br />And the cover? She kind of looks like Emily Deschanel from Bones! I don't know if I'd rather it was a real cover model or not...can't decide.Flannery (The Readventurer)https://www.blogger.com/profile/00235116017210793386noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1214401809446305406.post-5036227980841047272012-02-16T10:32:05.307-05:002012-02-16T10:32:05.307-05:00I've been wanting to read this one for a while...I've been wanting to read this one for a while!! Even with the love-triangle factor :) " Ah, another book sacrificed to the altar of YA love triangles." That just made me laugh out loud!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10236275337479478234noreply@blogger.com
