A new fan of Shannon Hale's fairy tale literature. I read Goose Girl in a single night - couldn't put it down. Enchanting entertaining, suspensful, and slightly romantic for youg adults. Engaging.
Next I read Princess Academy - loved the community language and all the main character learned. She had some significant "thinking errors" (What we call them at our house) and learned her own strength while exploring leadership, competition, and friendship.
Now beginning Book of A Thousand Days a fairy tale told by the maid locked in a tower with her lady for 7 years.
Great writing and loads of fun.
Then for any Jane Austen Fan try Austenland. A quirky and funny retelling of a popular favorite brought into modern day. Simiar to the movie Lost in Austen but not the same.
