Synopsis (Found on Goodreads):
There was and there was not, as all stories begin, a princess cursed to be poisonous to the touch.
But for Soraya, who has lived her life hidden away,
apart from her family,
safe only in her gardens,
it’s not just a story.
Thoughts:
Intense and unputdownable. I really enjoyed the plot as well as Soraya`s tale. The dehumanizing
of Soraya was heart wrenching. I appreciated how real the characters felt and how much they
learned throughout the story. The plot was well paced.
A princess as a monster but she has the power to save herself.
Death by touch isn`t new in the YA world but this original tale adds it in with a twist.
TTFN,
Ashley
