Entwined by Heather Dixon

Summary: (from book jacket) Azalea is trapped. Just when she should feel that everything is before her... beautiful gowns, dashing suitors, balls filled with dancing...it's taken away. All of it. The Keeper understands. He's trapped, too, held for centuries within the walls of the palace. And so he extends an invitation. Every night, Azalea and her eleven sisters may step through the enchanted passage in their room to dance in his silver forest. But there is a cost. The Keeper likes to keep things. Azalea may not realize how tangled she is in his web until it is too late.
Review: This book is different than a lot of things I usually read. The plot was really slow at first and although the setting was interesting it took me while to get into the story. The magic aspect was exciting despite being a little bit predictable towards the ending. The climax towards the end was by far the best part of the book. This book is worth not sticking with for that reason alone. I liked all the characters. Azalea is a great main character. I enjoyed getting to know her and all her sisters as the story went on. I do think that because there were so many characters readers don't really get to know each individually that much, but still enjoyed them. I thought the way the girls acted about dancing was a little bit ridiculous sometimes. Overall, this book was just ok in my opinion.
