Here’s another review of The Unicorn Girl! It’s the first 4 star on Amazon.com and I feel great.
I feel almost guilty for being the first “non 5 star” reviewer, but I am quite stingy with my 5 stars and certainly don’t give them out after the first read. That said, Unicorn Girl was a wonderful story. I received the book as a gift and once picking it up burned through it in a couple days. The story is engaging and entertaining, and is free from the blood, cursing, and sexual innuendo that is so commonly present in veritably all fiction now days.
The book has many of the common themes and twists that you would expect from this style of novel, making some of the events thoroughly predictable. However, LeGette did a good job throwing in a few twists and developing the plot in an engaging way. So I had no issue with the so called predictability (I’ve read enough books that truly surprising me is rather difficult).
This book, as I mentioned, is lacking in descriptive violence (there is peril, but its not graphic), sex (though there are, clean, romantic bits), and swearing (I think they used the word hell twice). Consequently it is perfectly safe for any age. I would recommend it for 10 and up, but there is no harm in someone younger reading it if they would understand. (I would also recommend it, as and adult, for adults.)
Overall good book. I plan on picking up “For the Kingdom” in the near future to see if this author consistently writes such good books.
