ROOT BOUND Book Reviews:

Mira at Forever Book Lover has written a glowing review of ROOT BOUND. She says:
This book was amazing. It is, without a doubt, the best book I've read all year, and I've read a series of excellent books so far.Rating 10/10 

Read the Review at Forever Book Lover.

Mindy Wall at Books, Books and More Books says:
This is a charming book filled with humorous characters with normal flaws that learn how to work together to fix that which is broken. It is a great book for children, especially girls, in elementary school or middle grades. It’s also got enough charm for adults who are reading along.

Majanka at I Heart Reading:
The author has a great writing style, and she managed to take Greek mythology and combine it with other classic elements to come up with a pleasant, original story I for one thoroughly enjoyed. The story is very imaginative, the characters are well-developed (including the Brownies) and there’s an obvious humorous undertone.

Cassidy Crimson's Blog:

Two New Reviews of ROOT BOUND This Week!

Huge thanks to Arely at The Fantastical World of Wonders and to Courtney at Once Upon a Bookshelf for two glowing reviews of ROOT BOUND this week!

Arely writes:

If you know me, you'd know that I love all things mythological. I especially love fantasy novels that incorporate mythological beings into their stories. This book not only did that, but spun it in a really original way.
