As the inaugural post of my new, literary focused blog, I'm going to write a review of a YA fantasy novel - one of my favorite genres.
For those of you who have a Barnes and Noble account, you may already know this, but every Friday they have a free ebook. Most of the authors I've never heard of and, let's be honest, there's no probably a reason they're giving the books away for nothing. So in general I keep my expectations rather low. Yet every week I check, just in case. Last week, as I prepared to head out on my final adventure in Europe before going home, a YA fantasy book popped up as the free ebook that week. Even better it was about a girl going to Scandinavia - just like me! Even better it was written by an author from my home town - Minneapolis. It was destiny. With a few clicks it was mine.
