Sounds like an interesting re-telling of Rapunzel. I have been reading more fantasy as well this year and am finding I really enjoy it! I’ve seen this one around a lot lately (on the blogosphere).

Glad to know that I am not the only one to not figure that out. Obviously, my husband is a genius. Jeanette – You slipped in there while I was responding to the others.

I'll definitely be reading more of this author. This was my first book. Tracee - One of my goals this year was to try a new genre. Fantasy is it. Raych and Nymeth - You both make me feel so much better about myself! **SPOILER** Kim - It's actually YA but I did read one review that thought it should be classified as adult. I don't think it would be appropriate for your eight year old. At the end of the book there is a sex scene(they do declare themselves married first, but it's just a declaration) and she becomes pregnant. You might want to read it first and then decide. But I think it would be above her. Liviania – Hi! I’ll definitely be reading more of this author. This was my first book.
