The Iron Tree

Once upon this disaster called life I read a book called The Iron Tree.

Amazing... Purely amazing...
Okay, so it was pretty long and the events are miniscule but it's so descriptive and intriguing and if the author ever reads this, CONGRATULATIONS.

Anyways, definately you should read it if you ever get the chance. And I'm sure the second one, The Well of Tears, will be just as good. I haven't bought the third yet, though I will as soon as I finish reading these two.

Oh, a lil bout the plot:
It's a romantic adventure fantasy. It's amazing and romantic and adventurous and just o'erwhelming. They sorta kinda speak in old english, so some sentences I have to read over once or twice before I understand it or absorb the full scenery. But it's truly amazing. This couple falls in love, then they find out that the female is cursed through an ancient family curse. So, they cannot marry. And they go to this annual Autumn fair and the husband finds this old man who describes to him how the curse came about. Then they find out that Jarred (the main character) is the grandson of the Sorceror that put the curse on Lilith(wife)'s family. :O. Shocking right. But they end up getting married... The curse seems to be avoided until the end. The King finds out and wants Jarred to open this old palace thing but he doesn't want to cause its evil. So they run away, oh, he has a daughter named Jewel and Lilith's step-brother and Jarred share a horrible hatred for one another. Lilith is frightened into the madness by the King's men chasing them into the marsh, their home, and falls off a clif. Jarred tries to rescue her and dies. Jewel goes away with her step-uncle and try to run to safety. End of book 1.

CONCLUSION: READ IT!!!!

Cindy Ella

Once upon this disaster called life, I read a book called Cindy Ella by Robin Palmer. Honestly, it is a GREAT book. I'm not just saying that to endorse it or because I have some contract with the publishing company that if I put it on my blog, then they'll publish my work, because I don't have anything like that. Honest, I swear! Being completely honest, I don't. I'm a writer, yesh, but I would never sell myself out. Seriously, this is a great book. Well, for girls. I rate it a 9.5/10. Why not 10/10? Well, a perfect book tends to be for both genders, for any age, at any stage of life, and can relate to any mood. This one is mostly for teenage girls, but still - it was great! I just could not put it down. ALSO, a new record best reading time. From 10 Pm - 2 AM. That's 4 hours. I'm quite proud. :) Most of you are probably thinking from the title: Cindy Ella? Are you serious? I've seen the movie hun, don't want to read another modern twist. It's honestly nothing like that. Her name is Cindy Ella Gold, and she's a sophomore who's anti-prom-ness gets her hated by pretty much the entire school. Her middle name - Ella - wasn't chosen to be highly ironic, but because it was her mother's favourite singer. Okay, so there are some relations to the Disney Classic, we all - or I - know and love, Cinderella. Her mom died, her dad remarried and she has two evil stepsisters who are completely prom crazy. Sound familiar enough? Ella is a nouveau feminists and writes a letter to the school newspaper that is completely anti-prom. Her two best friends stick with her, and she ends up meeting three guys - in the end, it ends up being one - and lives happily ever after. BUT, yes, that's right, I said but... She doesn't go to prom... I won't give away the complete story but to summarize...




YOU SHOULD READ IT.




It really is amazing. And complete props to Robin Palmer. I'll make sure to read some more of your books. K, well, farewell for now.

Signing off,
