I kmow very little about the middle ages and this sounds like it has a lot to offer so I am adding it to my TBR list :)Heidi@Rainy Day Ramblingshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05984216720423826256noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1211090800803751472.post-90224004396216493692012-04-20T23:39:47.750-05:002012-04-20T23:39:47.750-05:00Wow, I just don't know how I would feel about ...Wow, I just don't know how I would feel about this book. I think it isn't for me. I don't love historicals that much that I would like it and I get a sense of the feel for what happens at the end, and I couldn't stand that after I've become attached to characters, even if they are unbearable. Nope, I leave that to you librarians and history buffs.<br /><br />That was an extremely informative review. It helped me make up my mind about the book. I very much appreciate it! You did a really great job!<br /><br />HeatherBURIED IN BOOKShttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18205451716054533728noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1211090800803751472.post-39554632020539350912012-04-20T18:40:48.021-05:002012-04-20T18:40:48.021-05:00I love reading historical fantasy because of the n...I love reading historical fantasy because of the nice things (e.g. pretty clothes, nice banquets) but the reality was probably very different for most people. So, I like that this one focuses more on the reality. I'm really curious about the ending since it threw preconceived thoughts about the characters out the window.A Canadian Girlhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07127164685941412250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1211090800803751472.post-85988516813402929712012-04-20T14:23:12.658-05:002012-04-20T14:23:12.658-05:00Historical fiction is not really my thing, but I c...Historical fiction is not really my thing, but I can certainly understand the presented tension between the two vastly different dynamics.Missie, The Unread Readerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10548256640926555361noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1211090800803751472.post-50757611621566835682012-04-20T11:45:06.979-05:002012-04-20T11:45:06.979-05:00"Instead of given the voice of a victor, we a..."Instead of given the voice of a victor, we are given two unapologetic voices that forces us to choose who is bad and good."<br /><br />That makes me very much want to read this book Rummanah!
