Song Of The Sparrow by Lisa Ann Sandell
This is written in prose, so it makes for a different (not necessarily difficult) read. Just not something I'm used to. The story line is great though.
This was a really sweet book. The heroine was realistically crafted, and a sweetheart of a girl. And verse was a perfect medium for the story.
Written in verse, this story retells the tale of Lancelot and Guinevere from another's perspective watching their relationship unfold. Filled with anecdotes, adventure, love, and romance, Song of the Sparrow will keep your swooning from the edge of your seat. I cannot recommend this book highly enough to anyone who will take the time to listen to me rave about it!
This book is told entirely in verse and is set on the cusp of King Arthur’s court. The poetry of it all isn’t too flowery, and it reads naturally, but with less dialogue and not much time spent on descriptions. We follow Elaine, who is a play on the Lady of Shalot, and she lives with the men at a battle camp and helps heal them.
