Explanation In Favor Of Books The Amaranth Enchantment

When Lucinda Chapdelaine was a small child, her parents left for the royal ball and never returned. Ever since, Lucinda has been stuck in perpetual servitude at her evil aunt's jewelry store. Then, on the very same day, a mysterious visitor and an even more bizarre piece of jewelry both enter the shop, setting in motion a string of twists and turns that will forever alter Lucinda's path.

In this magical story filled with enchanting surprises, Lucinda will dance at the royal ball, fall under the Amaranth Witch's spell, avenge her parents' death, restore justice to a town that does not yet know the corrupt danger around them, and maybe - just maybe - Lucinda might capture the heart of a prince.

Evaluation Out Of Books The Amaranth Enchantment

Only took me about two hours to read. If Ms. Berry had added more detail, and more description this book could have been wonderful, but there were not enough words to put a picture into my head. The end was very rushed.SPOILERS:I stewed on this book all night and have questions. 1. Have these people never heard of rope, handcuffs, or cages? Why does someone have to sacrifice themselves? 2. How the heck in the city that the prince went missing in, remembering the birth mark and that his mother



The Amaranth Enchantment, Julie Berry's debut novel, has the shadow of a fairy tale in its soul. Yes, there's a prince, but not just any prince; this prince looks like he swallowed the sun for breakfast. Yes, there's a royal ball, but not just any royal ball; this ball is to announce the engagement of the prince to a princess who looks like she was sculpted from spun sugar. And then there's our heroine, Lucinda Chapdelaine, who has not only wit, but compassion as well, not to mention brains and

Umm, really not impressed. I felt that most of the writing was fairly cliche and that there were ridiculous amounts of details in unimportant areas, and then no details in key plot points. There were several holes in the plot (like why didn't she just tell the prince the truth from the beginning?) but I could forgive that if the heroine was worth it. She's not. She starts off as a poor picked on Cinderella type but then the author tries to make her bolder, but it doesn't work. I never had much

A magical and enchanting fairy tale all on it's own.The Amaranth Enchantment is a sweet story of love and magic.The writing is beautiful with a cast of colorful characters set in a world perfect for any escape that will entertain anyone looking for a happily ever after.

Despite the two star rating, this book really was enjoyable. However, it was a very generic fantasy/fairy tale novel. One thing that really frustrated me was that the setting was so ambiguous that certain things seemed out of place. Details pointed me towards the Victorian Era (the use of the words hats, the emphasis on Christmas), but others suggested another era. The last names suggested France, but the first names were decidedly English. Berry was clearly going for her own made up place, but

The Amaranth Enchantment is a fairytale style fantasy. It has some of the familiar features of a fairytale, but is not simply a rewriting of a traditional tale. The heroine is a formerly wealthy orphan now basically a slave to her uncle's wife. There's also a godmother type figure and a prince, a royal curse - and even a mysterious goat. But these familiar elements are entwined in a new way to make a completely original tale. I liked it. There was some interesting stuff in there. But
