Fable: A Reese's Book Club Pick

Such an amazing adventure this book takes you on from the first page to the cliffhanger on the last page!

Yet another excellent book by Adrienne Young. I liked this more than Sky in the Deep. In that book, the writing was fantastic as always but the plot and characterization was just average. However, in Fable everything was great! Excellent writing, plot, and characterization. I'm ready to jump into Namesake right now.

One of my favorite books of all times! I seriously can't get enough of Adrienne Young's books and the way she weaves her stories. The plot was spectacular and had me dying to know what would happen next. I can't wait to read the next book.

Holy moly. What an adventure this story weaves. Every time Fable gets her footing, it seems to be cut out from under her. And yet, she perseveres.Adrienne Young has a lyrical writing style that takes the reader on a fantastical journey. Every book I’ve read of here, I finish with a great sigh and am reminded how much I love her work.
