Description

Famous' adventure began with fairy tales of monsters, witches and wizards. The fairy tales her mother had told her as a child.

One day she asked her mother where she came up with such fantastic stories. She told Famous that they were stories from her journey to finding her and one day she too would take the same journey.

Her Mother's dying wish was for Famous to take the journey she had taken years before. The journey to where she had found Famous. An adventure that turned out to be so much like those fairy tales. Her childhood stories come to life in this epic adventure, years after her Mother's death.

Finding the journal was the beginning of finding herself the way her mother had found her. Famous finds herself faced with the unbelievable characters she had thought could only exist in fairy tales.

This book is very well written. I liked the plott who looks well made and the nice characters that are different and sympatic at the same time. The book throws you in a great adventure theled story. The storyline is veryunique and so very exciting to read. I was really caught from it since the beginning. The high number of twists and turns are unexpected and keeping the tension high.

I loved this book. It features so many semi sets of some of the fairy tales I grew up with.

It is a wonderful story of a daughter following in her deceased mother's footsteps and become a a voyage of discovery. It had some surprises and some wonderful emories.

I recommend this book highly. I think you will really enjoy reading it. I am looking forward to more from this author.

A sincere thank you to the publisher, author and Netgalley for providing me an ebook copy of this book in exchange for a fair and honest review. I enjoyed this story very much and felt like I knew each character personally due to the description of them. I enjoyed the storyline. This is not my usual genre but in this instance I am extremely pleased and grateful for opening up my mind to something totally different. Thanks again.

Thank you to NetGalley, Alexis Anicque and the publishers for the eARC in return for an honest review.

Famous, yes that is her actual name, lost her mother several years ago and finally decides to read her mother’s journal. The journal leads her to set out on an adventure which she discovers her mother made. Along the way she discovers that the fairytales her mother told her as a child and she thought were exactly that, seem to have more significance to them than at first appeared. This book is Famous’ adventure to find out who she is. Adorable characters, fun adventure and very entertaining with a surprising twist.
I look forward to reading the next book.

A magical journey unlike any other. Perfect for fans of Harry Potter and similar stories. Travel the world with Famous, meeting incredible characters that you'll immediately fall in love with. Action packed and filled with unexpected twists. I desperately long for a sequel now. I recommend for teens and up, your never too old for magic.

What a story. This one’s an 8 out of 10. I’m also reading the Bestseller We Need to Talk About Kevin, a completely different genre, but this knocks that into a cocked hat. I thoroughly enjoyed this story. We are led on a magical quest with our leading lady, Famous. Famous for what? We like her, she’s kind and pleasant, and one of those nice people that the world needs more of. We are taken with her, following in her deceased mother’s footsteps from America, to Ireland and beyond. The characters she meets along the way help her on her journey as she finds herself and discovers who she is. The pace is fabulous, the description great, and the dialogue fluid and believable. We lose a couple of points because the MS could do with another edit to tighten it, but the odd error and clumsy sentence doesn’t detract in any way from the story. I loved it and will be looking out for future books by this talented lady. Highly recommended.
