The Storyteller's Daughter: A Retelling of the Arabian Nights by Cameron Dokey

3.0

I pulled this off my daughter's bookshelf in a moment of boredom. It's a retelling of the old Arabian Nights fairytale. It was a quick read, just a little escapism/distraction. It didn't blow me away, but it was entertaining. Shahrazad is a strong heroine, which I love, she's brave and courageous in her own right. She follows not only her heart, but does what she perceives to be her duty. I liked the twists of Shahrazad's blindness and the idea of seeing another's heart, but it wasn't a terribly compelling book. However, it was entertaining and clean and a quick read. :)
