Hello, and welcome to my blog!

Most of history is told from a male's perspective. My intent of this blog is to show history from a different perspective, a woman's. These books that I am going to review are about women in historical eras. These are both nonfiction and fiction and can fit into any genre: historical, YA, mystery, fantasy, etc.

It took me a week to create this blog. I would like to thank my parents for helping me and for their encouragement.

I would also like to thank my friend and computer wiz, Allen, for putting this blog up on the website. Without his help, this blog would most likely not be up right now for I do not understand computer software. I greatly appreciate his availability and kindness to help me.

Last, but not least, I would like to thank those who visited my website. So enjoy my blog! I'll be updating consistently! :)

Praise for Clovers and Fire:

"From fantasy author Lauralee Jacks, Clovers and Fire is a witty, fast-paced fairytale geared toward the eight-to-fourteen age range. The tale boasts all the aspects of a fine adventure story: fearsome monsters, sword fights, true love, and chivalry... the story contains the thread of a magnificent theme–timid yet proud, raw yet polished–flowing through the tale’s tapestry. It is the ageless truth that love sees no outward status and that a real friend is not so much the one who helps you admire the clovers, but the one who stands by you in the fire." ---Victoria Buck, author of The Ocean's Accomplice

"A fairy tale never loses its charm. Clovers and Fire is no exception. This story has all the components you've come to love and expect in a fairytale: knights, princes, adventure, magic lands, and even a dragon. Told with a bit of humor, I found this book charming, and great as a family read-out-loud. The short chapters, humor, and vivid action make this a families and children will enjoy." ---Kirstin Pulioff, author of The Escape for Princess Madeline

"This story wouldn't be complete without our two heroes, King Stefan and Prince Chauncey, a ferocious ravenhog, young maidens, an ugly troll, and a sea fairing quest to Dreamland. The quest, to see who will win the beautiful Princess Cassandra's hand in marriage. I don't want to spoil the ending, but will say this is not an easy feat. How would you stand up to a fire breathing dragon and a friend that betrays you? This story wraps up forgiveness, bravery, and just pure excitement.
I'm a firm believer that if a child doesn't like to read, they haven't found the right book. This book will make readers through its flowing writing style and engaging story.

On a side note: I downloaded the book at midnight and couldn't stop until it was over. Highly recommended..."--- Caroline Robinson, author of Pixie and the Green Book Mystery
