Chronicle Toward Books Slumber

Once upon a time, Ruby believed in magic…

When Ruby volunteers to take her mother's housecleaning shift at the gothic Cottingley Heights mansion, she thinks it's going to be business as usual. Clean out the fridge, scrub toilets, nothing too unusual. But nothing could prepare her for the decadent squalor she finds within. Rich people with more money than sense trashing their beautiful clothes and home just because they can. After the handsome Tam discovers her cleaning up after him and his rich friends, Ruby has never felt more like a character from her sister’s book of fairy tales.

Tam sees beyond Ruby’s job and ratty clothes, and sweeps her off her feet, treating her like a real princess, but Ruby is sure this beautiful boy is too good to be true. And as one tragedy after another befalls Ruby and her family, Ruby painfully learns that magic is all too real, and it always comes with a price.

Comment On About Books Slumber

4.5 stars:I absolutely loved Outcast, published by Diversion Books and this time round I picked up Slumber. Boy, oh boy did I love it. The cover screamed at me to read it, then from the first page I was immediately drawn in. I couldnt put it down. Slumber isnt just a story about magic (however awesome a story about magic is). Its much deeper than that. Its about family and how far many of us would go to protect the ones we love. In this case Ruby, our protagonist needs to save her sister and her

Ooh, what a delightful little find. This is why I love Netgalley. Because in amongst a load of good books (and a few not-so-good), now and then I come across a real gem that I probably would never have read otherwise. And now it's my job to convince you that you want to read it too!The mesh between urban life and magic is perfect here. Ruby is as real as it gets - reduced to sorry circumstances, living in a trailer park with her mum and little sister, her grades at school slipping because she

I am writing this unbiased review in exchange for a free copy of the book.Ruby take over a cleaning job for her mum who is ill, cleaning a house in the Hamptons where the rich live. How hard could this be? Unfortunately, very. Ruby finds an old house that has been trashed, teenagers still on a high and a handsome guy who helps her clean up.If you like your fairy's pink and sparkly do not read this book. If you are prepared to read about faeries who are selfish, unkind and more in the

Thank you to NetGalley for a copy of this book.3.5 stars This was a nice blend of fairytales and faries. Not that it's unheard of to do that, but the author did a good job of mixing them up into an interesting story that I really enjoyed. In fact, I started reading it in the afternoon and couldn't put it down until I finished it last night.Dear Baby Jesus, please forgive me for feeding my kids Spaghettios and ice cream for dinner....again.The plot was great (evil fairies using humans as

When I picked up this book, I was ready for an interesting read based on the blurb. However, nothing prepared me for the utter darkness of the inhabitants of Cottingley Heights. This story is quite dark, in my opinion, and deals with pretty depressing topics that I would only recommend to the older end of YA readers. To me, this story would be a little too scary for younger YA readers - but it is very interesting, and kept me on the edge of my seat the entire time I was reading it.Ruby is a very

When I saw that this was about a girl working as a cleaning woman at a mysterious manor house, I was hoping it would have some Gothic elements, but instead, it's pretty much straight paranormal. This was a quick read and entertaining at times, but nothing particularly memorable, and the writing and characterization were mediocre at best. There was at least one giant plot hole that bothered me, though the rules of magic in this world were consistent, which is a point in its favor. This wasn't

The captivating cover drew me in and I knew that this wasnt just another magic based book.It is a thousand things more and then some.Slumber is not just a story of magical beings, it is a story of family and the lengths we will go to protect the ones we love.Ruby is one of the strongest characters I have come across in a while and I absolutely loved her resolve. Her family came first every step of the way (yes, even above the sexy, mysterious creature known was Tam), and I always appreciate that
