Wildwood Dancing by Juliet Marillier
5.0
I absolutely Loved this fantastic book! With it's charming setting, and lovely characters. This book also taught me something about myself, about how we can sometimes be Too protective over those we love. We can't stop bad things from happening to those we love, so we Have to let them make their own choices though it pains us so.
Jena has to be my favorite character in this entire book, for her love and loyalty to her family. And how Fiercely protective she is over her home and the people of the otherside she simply wonderful in her own imperfect way (also her friendship with her little frog friend is so adorable.) And though I do love her four sisters, there were times when I couldn't help be feel a little upset for how they were acting (though towards the end I finally understood and forgave them.)
I also loved the Otherside, and how whimsical and magical it all was. And the people all had their own little quirks that made them all feel Real to me. Their dances, their talks. All of it was simply wonderful.
The one thing that I had just the smallest problem with was the Love a first sight that happens with one of the sisters, it felt foolish though I still found myself loving it all the same. Also their Cousin Cezar had me going up and down on how I felt about him, and I won't say which decision I came to in the end so you'll just have to read it to find out :)
