Customer Reviews

Couldn't put it down

I wasn't sure if I was going to like this book initially. Once I got done with the first chapter or three I couldn't put it down! I stayed up all night reading it and started the second one immediately currently impatiently waiting for the third one to be delivered.

I loved it!

I really enjoyed this series. It consistently held my interest throughout the whole series. A great story!

A world of intrigue, lies, and magic!

A thoroughly enchanting tale about a seemingly perfectly ordinary girl whose family secrets have always been frustrating but not personal, who is then swept up unexpectedly into the midst of it all. It was incredibly hard to put down as we ventured back in time on various adventures, and followed Gwyneth through the web of lies and dubious acquaintances met along the way. The cast of characters all have strong personalities and the plot has some lovely little twists that make it very charming. I am most definitely looking to purchase the rest of the series in short order!
