I've been looking for an incredibly fun adventure and this sounds absolutely perfect. And there's an enchanted piglet? And a sweet romance? Eeeeek! Definitely want to read this one. I am sad to hear that the author passed away, though. :( That's upsetting that she didn't get to see her debut hit the shelves.

I must admit that it wasn't one that I felt would interest me, but your review does have me thinking that I might. I heard the bad news about the author a few months ago, it's so sad. I think her husband keeps a blog going, well he did at that time.

It does sound like a fun read, although perhaps a little bit less serious than I initially thought it would be. It is sad about the author, but at least she'll be able to live on through this one book of hers. Glad you were able to enjoy it, Rachel, and that there were enough twists and interesting aspects to keep you entertained. I can't wait to read this myself.Amandahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03052456915027241479noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1019785638850450889.post-38351243172130675882013-02-19T18:57:43.378+00:002013-02-19T18:57:43.378+00:00I'm itching to meet Kyra!

It was just one of those really fun reads that didn't take itself too seriously and aimed strictly to entertain:) I was really saddened when I read about Bridget on the last page as well, especially given how young she was.
