Had some store credit and picked these up... the store is kind of a mess and it's hard to find things. Hopefully they'll be good. #Storyphotobomb

DivineDiana I‘ve started reading 7y
Foragingfantasy @DivineDiana The bookshop owner said it was wonderful. And that his others are too. I haven't read him before, but I've been obsessed with Russian fairytales lately and thought I might like it. 7y
DivineDiana I had never heard of him until a friend suggested it to me. When I posted on Litsy, it received good reviews! 7y

I picked up this book because I liked the title and the cover art. I had a hard time getting into the story because I was not expecting it to be told from the perspective of the prince and all in all I left feeling a little luke warm about it. I'd probably give it a three star rating... maybe 2.5 but it's a been a while since I read it so I can't remember all its virtues and faults.

I wasn't terribly fond of this book. The writing tended to be a bit repetitive, particularly in terms of word choice (the phrase "animal magic" is used probably at least once every page on average). Also, it takes a while to even get introduced to the title characters, which seems like an odd choice. Overall, I didn't really care for any of the main characters, so I was less forgiving of the redundancy and predictable plot lines.

This is actually from her eBook "21 Reasons You Don't Think You Have Time to Write." If you write, I highly recommend this. It's $2.99 on Amazon.
