I saw this being promoted by the author and thought it looked quite interesting. I've read both good and scathing reviews and am interested to see how it pans out for me.

I've wanted to read this for ages and was very excited when I saw it on a buy-one-get-one-free offer in my local supermarket. I love fairytale re-tellings and this one looks particularly orignal.

The other half of the B-O-G-O-F offer. I couldn't not, really... I've read, and enjoyed, all the Twilight saga and this looks like an interesting addition. Also, I think that it has one of the best covers that I've seen in ages.

I read the first in this series fairly recently and found it an enjoyable, light read. My daughter has been ill this week and I wanted to make sure that I had something on my shelf that I could pick up in the middle of yet another sleepless night and not find too taxing - I think that Schuyler and friends will fit the bill nicely.

I actually had no intention of reading this book - I saw the words "Christian camp" and mentally crossed it off my list. I have nothing against Christian fiction but tend to find it a bit preachy, which I don't appreciate. However, I've read some great reviews of this title that lead me to believe that it is not at all what I was expecting and I'm looking forward to reading it.

I found this in my local library. I vaguely remember reading a few reviews of it a while back and thought it looked like it might be quite original.

I got this in audio book format as part of a promotion for Audible. It didn't cost me anything and I loved The Shadow of The Wind by the same author. Will have to haul my sewing machine out, as I only really listen to audio books while sewing. The Prince Of Mist has given me a great incentive to start quilting again!
