Summary: 5 Stars
I love this book! Is it wrong to love a sequel more than the first in a series? cause I do. I love all of Shannon Hales' work (yes, I have read them all and wait rather impatienly for more) and this is my most favorite. In fact it is one of my most favorite books of all time, right up there on the shelf by Harry Potter. Read it! but definitely read the Goose Girl first, you'll find you can't stop and you'll read them all too.Book Review: Loved this book
Summary: 5 Stars
I really enjoyed reading this story. I would recommend reading Goose girl first to get a better understand of the strength of the characters. This was one of those books that I enjoyed reading so much I didn't want it to end. Shannon Hale is a great story teller and she does it well with out all the bad language and violence. I truly enjoy reading her books :)Book Review: Moral dilemmas
Summary: 5 Stars
I loved Goose Girl and River Secrets. Enna Burning is equally masterful. Hats off to Shannon Hale! However, this story is very dark. We begin the story already liking Enna who was such a good friend to Isi in Goose Girl. Here, Enna is captivating and lovable. Therefore, her inability to control this horrible destructive power of fire is deeply disturbing. How do young readers feel about her setting fire to hundreds of humans? Are they supposed to just shrug it off, because "Those people were strangers, anyway," or "It was okay, because it was war"? Really, it's not okay. This book would be a great prompt for older teens' discussions of moral dilemmas, but it's certainly not fare for an eleven-year-old at home alone.
Preteen readers feeling the need to get back to the real world after this frightening fantasy might enjoy Danger, Long Division, where Becca solves her problems through hard work and persistence without any uncontrollable magical powers.
