Hello all! Today I'm here to share with you a bit about Amanda's new release, The Secret Slipper! I had the privilege of Beta-reading it, and it was absolutely splendid! So, first I'm gonna let you read about the book, and then you can read my review. ;)
And there's a giveaway, too, so be sure and enter that!
About
the Book
Being a cripple is only the beginning of Lia’s troubles. It
seems as if Bioti’s goal in life is to make Lia as miserable as possible. If
Lia’s purpose is to be a slave, then why did God make her a cripple? How can He
make something beautiful out of her deformity?
Raoul never questioned the death of his daughter until
someone reports her whereabouts. If Ellia is still alive, how has she survived
these ten years with her deformity? When Raoul doesn’t know who to trust, can
he trust God to keep Ellia safe when evidence reveals Bioti’s dangerous
character?
As time brings more hindrances, will Raoul find Ellia, or
will she forever be lost to the father she doesn't even know is searching for
her?

Doesn't it sound splendid?! Well, it is. So go and get yourself a copy. ;) Now for the review . . .
My Review:
I had the privilege of beta-reading The Secret Slipper and I enjoyed the story immensely! The father-daughter take on an old fairy talk classic was delightful, and I cannot wait to share it with my sister, who is impatiently awaiting the paperback.
The characters were all done very well; there really wasn't any that were in the book for no reason. They all had a purpose. Which was nice to read for a change. ;) The struggles of the characters were also very well done and very relateable.
And, as always, Ms. Tero was able to weave the thread of the gospel message into the story flawlessly, in a way that didn't at all feel preachy. It made it stand out so much more because of that.
So yes, a wonderful retelling that I would definitely recommend!

Amanda Tero is a
homeschool graduate who desires to provide God-honoring, family-friendly
reading material. She has enjoyed writing since before ten years old, but it
has only been since 2013 that she began seriously pursuing writing again –
starting with some short stories that she wrote for her sisters as a gift. Her
mom encouraged her to try selling the stories she published, and since then,
she has begun actively writing short stories, novellas, and novels. If
something she has written draws an individual into a deeper
relationship with Jesus Christ, it is worth it!

with all thine heart, and lean not unto thine own understanding.”
