In my last blogpost I wrote of how I was cautious of eBooks.
When I downloaded those free Kendra Ardnek books I accidentally downloaded one other free short story.
I almost deleted it, but my mom was like, "It's free, it's a fairy tale. Check it out. If it isn't good then delete it."
Wow. That short story ended up being one of the best accidents ever.
I loved it so much that I decided "If there are more, I'm going to buy them, even if they are ebooks."
Thankfully they are available in both paperback and hardcover :) And I'm buying these VERY soon :) Also, while doing this blog post, I found out that the author was home schooled and has three kids :) that's pretty neat, I think :)
Maelyn by Anita Valle
Available to download for free
Anita Valle on facebook and her blog.
Series: Book 1 of the Nine Princesses
(Only three books are finished as of yet).
Rating: 5 stars. Appropriate for all ages. Once scene with kissing. No magic.
Genre: fairytale
My Review:
Years before when the land was full of plague and famine there lived a good king and queen that could have no children. So, the King rescued 9 girls, one from each providence.
Now orphaned again, the princesses are fighting to keep their place as heirs for the throne. Maelyn, the oldest has mysteriously dismissed all the servants and the sisters must take care of the castle themselves.
Their uncle has come for an unexpected and unpleasant visit. Maelyn knows that something awful is going to happen.
Between plotting to keep her rightful place and dodging her uncle, Maelyn must keep her sisters in order.
But it seems as if all are against them and her....that is except for the mysterious messenger Willow, who brings her new, fascinating novels that help her forget about her troubles.
