    ❤BEST MODERN FANTASY! ❤
  

*by N***Y on May 9, 2018*









  
  
    Alex Flinn is a great Author! Along with Beastly this book A Kiss In Time,  is amazing! Eventually I will buy the rest of Alex's books to my collection.  Including the (Kendall Chronicles) Her books are all about Modern Fantasy. Which seem to be my favorite genre right now. I definitely recommend this book to all preteens and teenagers,  and young adults who love these spin-offs of classic princess stories and fantasy, and romance. One of the VERY BEST book right here.  ♥ ♥ 😍

    A clash of time-cultures
  

*by T***E on April 19, 2014*









  
  
    I loved the way Alex Flinn made the princess sleep for 300 years so that she was awoken by a cool dude from present times. It gave the opportunity to explore different parenting styles (the princess's father is over the top in his fury at all his trading partners having disappeared in the last 300 years) and also in styles of manners. The narrative alternates between the viewpoint of the princess and that of her rescuer. Flinn doesn't present the usual boring alternative to a demure princess - namely a rude aggressive young woman - but the princess finds herself on a steep learning curve as she finds that her assumptions about royal privilege just  don't work anymore. Similarly the young man has to grow up and learn new ways of looking at his family and at life. There is a lot of pleasant  humour. I found the interest level was maintained from start to finish in this fascinating new working of an old tale.

    Aurora Move Over, Talia Is Here
  

*by P***E on May 12, 2009*









  
  
    A Sleeping Beauty RetellingI couldn't wait to get my hands on this book.  I love Flinn's Beastly and when I heard that the author was writing another fairy tale retelling, I had to have it.Princess Talia of Euphrasia was always protected and never allowed to go anywhere because of one little curse at birth.  If she was to touch a spindle, she would fall asleep, along with the rest of the kingdom, until she was awoken by true love's kiss.  Just before her 16th birthday, she was looking for gowns for her birthday celebration when she was lured into a tower and met an old woman.  There she pricked her finger and fell asleep.  Fast forward to present time and we have Jack, a 17 year old, bored by his forced traveling tour of Europe.  He grabbed his friend and they sneaked off and finds themselves in a sleeping village.  Entering the castle, they explore and happened upon a sleeping Talia.  Jack felt the urge to kiss her and did so, awakening a dormant kingdom and whole host of new adventures.This was a charming story.  It was a light read and quickly finished.  Each chapter is divided into first person narration of Jack's and Talia's.  I didn't find this is as deep as Beastly (where you can actually read the hero's struggle), but it fits with the characters of the story.  Talia, at first, was annoying.  I thought she was spoiled, but as you continue reading, she slowly evolves and you can't help but feel sympathy for her.  Jack is your typical American guy, who likes to party and appears shallow.  Through Talia, he thought less of himself and more of the people around him.  I found that they did fall in love rather quickly, but then again, they are young.  The ending was okay.Even though I didn't like this as much as I did Beastly, it's definitely worth a section on my bookcase.
