I won Jacob of Avondale from
Lindsey from At the Beech House. I was so excited to win. I really wanted to read this book after Lindsey's review of it. You can read her book review
here. She then got an
interview with the author and did a giveaway. I had been entering in a lot of giveaways and not winning, so I was so happy to finally win something. I think it changed my luck a bit, because right after I won one of The Sweet Tooth Fairy's giveaways. Isn't it great to win? Thank you so much Lindsey for this book!
I read the first half of the book really fast and I also liked one of the main character's name, Raoul. How cool is the name Raoul?
I gave the book 4.5/5 stars. I am excited to read this to Ava when she is older. It's funny now that I am a mom, I judge kids books on whether or not I will want to read it to Ava.
Here is
my full review from Goodreads.
Jacob of Avondale
by P. Craig Packer (Goodreads Author)
4.5/5 stars. This was a very creative and fun book. I really enjoyed it and the little romance was cute. I think that it is a book best for late elementary and older. I did think, however, that everything was too easy and I thought it was weird that Jacob didn't seem to have any fear and didn't question much. But overall I thought it was really good book.
