I identify with Nadira on so many on Sao many levels. I have grown up resenting being too girly. But I a yet to find the Prince.. haha. The fact that she is not in distress makes the story more interesting! Great review!

This is an amazing enchanted fairytale highlighting a diverse and lovable protagonist, romance, evil, bravery, and fighting against fate. The book is temporarily free on Amazon Kindle and has a well-written OnlineBookClub review. Congrats @FairyTalescolor on the BOTD selection.

This book for sure is not the regular fairy tale book where the prince has to save the girl and marries her and that is the best intriguing part of this book for me. And yes, I must commend the design of the book, its very catchy. This was an amazing review

I love it when i hear about an independent woman. And Nadira is one of them. She doesn't seem to be bothered by what others are saying. This book is a must read for me. Thank you for a wonderful review.

From the review, I can fully understand how this book would be of great interest to young people, especially those weaned on stories of Disney princesses. It's not my persona cup of tea, but congratulations to the author for a well-reviewed book!

Interesting! Haven't read a fairy tale in ages. Maybe now is the time for one. A story that send a positive message sounds really good too besides... there's adventures. I have a feeling this is going to be an awesome read.

This sounds like an interesting book. I do enjoy books that have a good storyline. Hopefully Nadira will not conform to what is expected but instead follow her heart. Thanks for your review.
