I've been hearing so much about this book lately. I'm really thankful for your honesty about it though, as I tend to dislike passive protagonists, and I had not yet heard that about the book. I'm glad that although you had issues with it that you still considered it a pretty good read. I'm not ready to strike it off my list yet!

Thanks for the honest review. That happens to me, where I don't really care for the characters but the writing is so good that I end up really liking the book. Seems odd but it happens pretty frequently.

To me, the fact that you didn't really like the main character, but were still able to like the books says a lot about the book.

I felt the same way about The Alchemist's Daughter by Katharine McMahon. I didn't really like the main character, but I loved the book.

Hmm, that's interesting. I disliked two of the ma...

Hmm, that's interesting. I disliked two of the main characters in her last book too. But Once Upon a Day was a favorite of mine, so I definitely still plan on reading this. I also have The Song Reader on TBR so glad to hear that one's good!
