Tittle: The Red Necklace
Author: Sally Gardner
I give this book an A.
The Red Necklace has everything! Mystery, Romance, Magic and everything else that makes up a good book. I don't want to give away to much because I don't want to spoil it for anyone. (because I know you're all going to rush to the library to get it) The story takes place in Europe in 1789, at the beginning of the French Revolution. Sido, the marquises daughter, has been hated by her father all her life. Yann, a handsome mysterious gypsy, was orphaned at birth and raised by Tetu', who helped him understand his magical abilities. When these two teenagers meet they feel a strange force pulling them together. They later are forced to work together to stay alive. In doing so, they learn about their past, future, and the joys of love and family.
Thanks for the recommendation. I am always looking for a good book to read.
