Tor, well he was kind of an asshole for the first 60% or so but he made up for it in the rest of the book.

Cora was such an endearing character and I loved how she believed the best in people. There were some obvious Disney elements that I found charming. Obviously most people won't like it as much as the Golden Dynasty but I found this book to be quite the little gem. Tor brings her to his castle and that's where I'll stop. Together, they do their best to avoid the curse cast by an evil witch.

Meanwhile Cora is wandering around admiring her new clothing and the general splendor. Tor begins to think that the old Cora is playing him and is continually suspicious of Cora's motives. A place that will probably always be dirty. So Cora continues about her business, literally doing stuff like this: Of course, because she sounds like a crazy person he doesn't believe her. Unfortunately for her, Cora in this world is a raging bitch and her husband loathes her.Ĭora sets about trying to convince her husband, Tor, that she is in fact a different Cora. Very soon she unintentionally brings a curse upon her and her sister, and Cora's husband whisks her off to safety. Turns out we all have twins in a parallel world and Cora has somehow switched with hers. Cora wakes up in a new land where she can talk to birds and has a sister who literally tra la la's. Kristen Ashley does it again! I loved this next installment in the Fantasyland series. “In this world you were the only thing I had but you were the only thing I needed.” Reread October 2022 but I've reread this MANY TIMES The problem is, the more time she spends with the gorgeous warrior Tor, the faster she falls in love with him. And no matter what our Cora says or does to try to convince him, he won’t be convinced.īut Cora needs Tor to keep her safe and guide her through this fantastical world as she hopes one day to wake up in her not-so-great apartment in her not-so-great life in her world. Unfortunately, hot guy, fantasyland Noctorno doesn’t like the Cora of his world all that much (to say the least) and he thinks our Cora is her. Luckily, hot guy, fantasyland Noctorno is there to save her from the clutches of the grotesque vickrants sent by Minerva to capture her. The problem is, she thinks she’s in a dream but she’s actually taken the place of the parallel universe Cora and without realizing it, our Cora does something that starts a centuries old curse that will sweep the land if she gets captured by the evil Minerva.Īt this point, her dream world becomes a nightmare. Cora Goode has woken up in a fairytale world where she can understand what birds are saying to her, men ride horses and have fluffy feathers in their hats and furniture zigs, zags and whirls in miracles of construction.
