I am with you on the prologue...Great Review Chica!<br /><br />I am with you on the prologue/epilogue thing. I often don't understand having them and definitely not both! Sometimes I can understand one or the other (aka the prologue is set 15 years before the story or the epilogue set 15 years after the story) but if you do both then maybe just your story should encompass the whole time span.Felicia the Geeky Bloggerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03960623537536038059noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3174565204146611498.post-14529663472310677812011-01-06T13:37:27.380-07:002011-01-06T13:37:27.380-07:00ohhhh her name is Samantha and so is mine, that wa...ohhhh her name is Samantha and so is mine, that was it, I was hooked.S (Book Purring)https://www.blogger.com/profile/14395988034003666962noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3174565204146611498.post-50593332077126628412011-01-06T12:18:29.815-07:002011-01-06T12:18:29.815-07:00It was a cute story.:)

It's hard when there's a lot of information tucked in a story about one character in particular and there's clearly enough potential there for a whole other book, but yet it's crammed into the middle of a separate story. Too bad on that part though the rest of it sounds interesting:)Jennyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14199685365145765394noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3174565204146611498.post-4146772027787962422011-01-05T12:40:14.894-07:002011-01-05T12:40:14.894-07:00@Petty, you might like it, although it is set in t...@Petty, you might like it, although it is set in the past. :)<br /><br />@Melissa... I know you hate premises and epilogues and it has both. I didn't mind the epilogue.<br /><br />@Mel... it is more of a twist on the fantasy genre.
