Fairy Tale, 320 pages
Expected publication: May 8th 2012 by Harcourt Children's Books
It isn’t easy being the rather overlooked and unhappy youngest sibling to sisters named for the other six days of the week. Sunday’s only comfort is writing stories, although what she writes has a terrible tendency to come true.
When Sunday meets an enchanted frog who asks about her stories, the two become friends. Soon that friendship deepens into something magical. One night Sunday kisses her frog goodbye and leaves, not realizing that her love has transformed him back into Rumbold, the crown prince of Arilland—and a man Sunday’s family despises.
The prince returns to his castle, intent on making Sunday fall in love with him as the man he is, not the frog he was. But Sunday is not so easy to woo. How can she feel such a strange, strong attraction for this prince she barely knows? And what twisted secrets lie hidden in his past—and hers?

I have been in a real fairy tale mood lately, which is a good thing since Fairy Tale Fortnight II is coming up and I'll have to start my reading for it soon. Basically Amazing Ashley and I were talking a couple of days ago about how much we both want to read Enchanted by Alethea Kontis (frog prince!), so fingers crossed that we'll get our hands on copies and be able to share it with you for FTF! Either way, this is a wishlister for sure!
What's on your wishlist this fine Wednesday morning?
[Psst! If it happens to be the fabulous Cinder,
make sure you go here to win a copy of the audiobook!]
Ooooh. That's really pretty. It sounds really good.
