The Kingdom of Back

Very liberal 3 stars. The writing was so annoying and boring. Too many useless descriptions of everything.

The book was trying to give a good moral by saying that women should not back down but my God, did it fall flat. Nannerl created half of her problems herself.

50% of the book was Nannerl feeling envious of Woferl followed by immediate guilt. Ugh! Please, women. You almost let him die so many times and you treated him horribly even though he was just a little kid and it was your father who was the real culprit. The whole faerie story was so boring and badly written. The kingdom of back itself was riddled with mind numbing descriptions. The queen's powers came back just out of nowhere. The princess and prince thing was so badly explained. Since when do faerie fear the light? Also, how come eating the princess didn't affect Nannerl at all? And telling your child a story at the end does not imply you're standing up for anyone, let alone yourself.

What the heck did I just read?

Barely good enough for a one time read.

This was a cover buy
