I wanted to dive into the pages and never resurface. It was tropical, eerie, and magical. I'm not usually one for details, but every description led to a deeper connection to the story. I found myself painting pictures of the chapters as they played out and quickly became entranced by the plot. Tarot is about a princess named Anna who has been locked away in a tower for years. She lacks real life skills and is basically a newbie to everything outside her tower. Her escape is creating lush tapestries and sewing wondrous clothing. When word circles that she is to be executed, her friends/advisers aid in her escape. She isn't sure where to run, but when a bridge mysteriously appears, she can't help but cross. Anna ends up in a lush landscape with beautiful people and a cult like feel. It is there that she starts to let go and live. She doesn't completely trust her new situation though and begins weaving stories like she does fabric. It doesn't take long before she is entwined in her own lies. When it all comes to a head and the truth surfaces, the friendships she has formed dwindle and her love interest becomes uncertain. The ending is a bit of a whirlwind, but it doesn't once lack surprise or suspense. I think what I loved most about this read was the unique atmosphere and the simplicity of it all. The way art was portrayed was quite magical. I was surprised by how it all played out and in the end was rooting for characters that I wasn't sure about at the beginning. I thought the pace was great and the idea was really well developed. My only complaint would be that I craved more Topper and in more ways than just seeing his name pop up in the pages.... He was a wonderful character that really made the romance interesting. All in all, I recommend this book to all who want to explore fantasy, but also stay true to contemporary romance. It's truly the best of both worlds. I can't wait to read more by this Author. sin reseñas | añadir una reseña
"Born of a forbidden union between the Queen and the tyrannical King's archnemesis, Anna is forced to live out her days isolated in the Tower, with only her mentors and friends the Hermit, the Fool, and the Magician to keep her company. To pass the time, Anna imagines unique worlds populated by creatives and dreamers--the exact opposite of the King's land of fixed fates and rigid rules--and weaves them into four glorious tapestries. But on the eve of her sixteenth birthday and her promised release from the Tower, Anna discovers her true lineage: She's the daughter of Marco, a powerful magician, and the King is worried that his magical gifts are starting to surface in Anna. Fearing for her life, Anna flees the Tower and finds herself in Cups, a lush, tropical land full of all the adventure, free-spiritedness, and creativity she imagined while weaving. Anna thinks she's found paradise in this world of beachside parties, endless food and drink, and exhilarating romance. But when the fabric of Cups begins to unravel, Anna discovers that her tapestries are more than just forbidden expression. They're the foundation for a new world that she is destined to create--as long as the terrors from the old world don't catch up with her first."--Jacket flap.
