I was kind of sure this will be fairy-tale retelling, I really like those lately. It's not, it more The curious incident of the dog in the night (I really like that book:)) Main character Milly has a lot of psychological issues and is committed to the paediatrics psych ward, be her evil step mother. 

She has to count, before stepping through doorway, eating, talking, otherwise the wolf will take her. She meets a lot of kids there, who all have very different issues and are a bit alike with fairy tale characters. 

It is really good book to read, because it gives you inside in what it's like to fell that way, how real it fell, how it affect your life.

The whole story is really sad in way, once you find out the reason behind her disease... I cried so much during the last part of the book :).


Happy reading!

Luna is driving in a snowy wonderland, with a car that wasn't made for mountain driving, to discover who left the generous inheritance, when she runs out of flue close to her destination, she is saved by a knight in shining armour.  I was hooked right from the start and couldn't put it down! It's cute and romantic and pulls at all of your feelings.  It's the kind of story that touches your heart and transports you into a winter wonderland at the same time, the romance is quite something too. :) Highly recommend it! rating❤❤❤ ❤ cover❤❤❤❤ Goodreads || Amazon happy reading, anie

Welcome to the Cornish Country Hospital by Jo Bartlett

Danni hopes to have a fresh start when she moves. She needs to get over a guy she loves because he is engaged to her best friend. That didn't last long when they decided to come along and work with her in the same hospital. She needs to figure out what is more important to her, friendship or the growing attraction. I like the storyline and the backdrop of the hospital made it all that more exciting. But for some reason, I just couldn't get into the story. Maybe it wasn't a good fit for me. rating❤❤❤ cover❤❤❤ Goodreads || Amazon happy reading, anie
