WHY I WANT THIS BOOK!
I ABSOLUTELY loved the story Impossible by Nancy Werlin, and I'm so excited for the sequel UNTHINKABLE. Impossible was such an amazing story, and I can't wait to find out how Nancy plans on incorporating the "impossible tasks" into this story. I was totally won over when I found out that Impossible was inspired by the classic folk ballad “Scarborough Fair," and so intrigued by the notion that the heroine must complete three seemingly impossible tasks in order to break a family curse. Impossible had such a wonderful combination of mystery, magic, and romance to it, and was such a beautifully written story about the ability of love to conquer evil. I'm totally excited for UNTHINKABLE and I can't wait to find out more about Fenella, who is still trapped in Faerie land, and the deal she makes with the Faerie Queen!
