My Opinion
Simply Magical
Magical Tales with Love and Emotions. A perfect explanation for Enchanted Forests. The book has some beautiful anthology stories which takes us to a world full of fairies and magical creatures. My personal favorite is One Fair Eve by Lindsay Hall. The cover is somewhat one of the exceptional one, decorated with vines and colors. Each is totally different from other and I am very happy to be a part of this project. I really enjoyed the book.
I would like to give the book 4 stars. Thanks Astrid V.J. for providing me an opportunity to read and review the book and be a part of the campaign.
