SRP 2011 REVIEW: I enjoyed this story because it was intriguing and the plot moved at a good pace. The characters were interesting and the story was well written. I'd reccomend this book to anyone who enjoys fairy tales or stories about Victorian times.

SRP 2010 REVIEW: The title and cover make it look like 'The Other Boleyn Girl,' but it's really a coming of age book that dabbles in the supernatural. Definitely YA level. An OK, fast summer read.
