I can't say I'm very familiar with the tales of Swan Maidens, but I loved that Tomlinson used it as a launching point to her own book. Lovely story. ( ) I have had this book to read on my shelf for a long time. I picked it up during one of my “fairy tale retelling” binges (I go through those every 5 years of so). I was surprised by how much I loved this story; the writing is beautifully done. This is based on a French fairy tale called the Swan Maiden. This is a simple story that is sweet and beautifully written. It’s an easy read and pleasant. I enjoyed Doucette’s character and how she struggled with both wanting power and staying true to her heart. I loved that despite her complacence early in the story she ended up picking a path that would make her happy. The young shepherd she falls in love with is a sweet young man. Him and Doucette have great chemistry together; the scenes between the two are heartfelt and, at times, softly witty. The story flowed nicely and I enjoyed the description throughout; the description made the scenes really come alive and I could picture everything perfectly. Overall this was a sweet and simple fairy tale retelling. I enjoyed the beautiful writing, the characters, and way the story flowed. I would recommend to those who enjoy fairy tale retellings and are looking for something pretty and uncomplicated. nessuna recensione | aggiungi una recensione
Raised as a chastelaine-in-training unlike her sisters who are learning the arts of sorcery, Doucette discovers when she is sixteen years old that she too has magic in her blood, and she must brave her mother's wrath--and the loss of the man she loves--in order to follow her birthright.
