Welcome to Litsy!

I finished my second to last semester on a stressful note, but it is over and I‘m now working before I go to Great Britain for a study abroad. I finally got over my long everything-book-related slump with this audiobook. It was ok, I didn‘t know it was Christian fiction which usually isn‘t my thing. I was more annoyed with Odette and Jorgen‘s insta-love and their perfect, can do nothing wrong character type. The ending was pretty ridiculous too.

I‘m just so bored!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!😞😞😞😞😞😞😞😴😴😴😴😴🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱🥱

This book was not quite what I expected. I imagined Odette as having more of the qualities of the original Robin Hood. I also found the writing style disappointing and all the turns of events perhaps a little bit too convenient. Not a bad book by any means, but not an excellent one either.

Good!

More presents! I finally have a teapot! Excited to get these books read. #birthday #lovemymom

I'm always up for a new spin on a fairytale, especially this one, which I'll call "Swan Lake meets Robin Hood."

Also loved the tiny exchange between Odette and the monk when she quoted Scripture to contradict him and he got mad and left. 1300s feminism at work ?
