Wow! Brightly Woven was beyond amazing! From the reviews I had read for it I knew it would be good but it blew me away. It was better than I ever imagined. I know I don't have words to adequately describe how awesome it was but I will give it my best shot. =]Brightly Woven is Alexandra Bracken's debut novel. From the writing alone you would not be able to tell. Her writing was so beautiful and it flowed so well. I never wanted to stop reading. I had to take the book with me everywhere I went so I could sneak in some reading.The characters were nothing like I expected. When I read the summary I really didn't think I would like Wayland North but that was definitely not the case. North was a wizard who needed Sydelle's help but he kept a lot of stuff from her. I didn't like that about him but it was for a good reason. And Sydelle was brilliant! She was brave and feisty and I just loved her. She is one of the best heroines I have ever read about.Overall, Brightly Woven needs to be on everyones list of books to read. It was full of adventure, mystery, romance, and magic. It has a little bit of everything and I think everyone will find something to love about it. I am praying for a sequel because I want more of Sydelle and North's story!
