Turning Curse (Turning Curse #1)
Now Liam must escape her clutches while breaking her spell, but he is trapped in her castle with no way to escape. His only hope is to persuade Cordelia’s servant Gabrielle to help him. However, Gabrielle has a secret of her own, and helping Liam is something she cannot do.
Actual rating would probably be 3.5 stars I received a free copy for exchange of an honest review! So let me be honest. I was so excited to read a special retell of another Disney story (since Cruel Beauty was a total success), especially Princess and the Frog because it has so many possibilities. I thought I'll give this a five-star rating with flying colors, but I almost gave up at the middle. The characters were starting to annoy me (especially Liam), things were going nowhere and I got
I would like to express my gratitude towards the group David Estes Fans and YA Books Lovers and the author A. C. Harrah for giving me the honor to read this book for an honest review! Ok, let's start with the confession that when I started this book I was like great another male point of view, why do I keep doing stuff like this, I would slap myself but I am so vain that I do not feel like hurting my skin and less my gorgeous face, what if I meet my frog prince, I mean my own prince Liam.
This was an easy to read book with a predictable story, which is why the 4 stars not 5. The book is well written and does not have any violence, sex, or tensions of the day in it. It is a young person's love story with a happy, but realistic ending. There is pain and uncertainty at the end, not the fairy tale finish in only one dimension with Disney animation.This book would be a good book for young readers of middle school age. It has that bit of adventure in it, along with characters that

3.5 starsRead more of my reviews at My Full Bookshelf ReviewsI received a free copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. This is a mashup retelling of All Kinds of Fur, a super obscure fairytale(Don't look up the story if you don't want to know too much about the plot in this book!), and The Frog Prince, which everyone knows about. If you have any doubts whether the author could pull off retelling both of these stories in the same novel, don't. Turning Curse did well combining elements

I won this in a FirstReads giveaway, thank you!! I apologize for my tardiness in posting a review. This book was a great follow up to book 1. Written with just as much detail as the first. My 14 year old agrees that this book was wonderfully written. We would argue over who got to read first. A wonderful blend of fantasy and fairytale. The author is meticulous in her writing. Very enjoyable, we look forward to reading more by this author.Actual rating would probably be 3.5 stars I received a free copy for exchange of an honest review! So let me be honest.
