4.0 out of 5 stars Good quirky story 7 Sep 2012
By theperfectlypurplebookshelf
Format:Mass Market Paperback
I enjoyed this book by Britt Bury, a new author. It's a romance with a difference set in a magical world with an eccentric set of characters. The author has taken the story of Bluebeard and given it a romantic twist. Bluebeard is a washed up has-been with massive problems. His romantic interest is Jodi, a magical fixer who becomes attracted to him as she tries to help him. The world building in this book was excellent, and I loved all the wacky characters with references to their fairytale and legend backgrounds. Definately an author to watch.

4.0 out of 5 stars Interesting Read 3 Sep 2012
By LAS Reviewer - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
If there's one word that sums up this book, it's originality. All too often paranormal stories start sounding the same, but this one took a different approach to a make believe world.

I enjoyed getting to know Jodi and Blue. The secondary characters were fun too, especially Tank who I hope gets her own story one of these days.

Charming Blue is part legend, part fairy tale which made me reminisce about my childhood and the fairy tales I enjoyed so much like Snow White and Sleeping Beauty.

Ms. Grayson did a wonderful job of setting up this mythical world that on the one hand seems like our modern society but on the other it's magical enough to immerse yourself totally into the world of make believe.

It's a fun, unique read, and while the book might not be for every fan of paranormals, if you're looking for something slightly different, I'd say give this one a read.

Boring. Not even sure why I bothered to finish it. In hopes that it would get better? Dull, dull, dull.
3.0 out of 5 stars Review from My Overstuffed Bookshelf 10 Oct 2012
By A. Jacobs - Published on Amazon.com
Format:Mass Market Paperback
New stories based on childhood fairy tales can be a huge thing to take on for an author. Sometimes they work and other times they fall. They can be as wonderful and mesmerizing as Cinderella and Snow White. Other times they can be like Humpty Dumpty on that wall on the edge of great that unfortunately loses it's balance and becomes a mess for the reader. Authors have to know how to balance perfectly between long time readers and new readers. We all have our favorite fairy tale and trying to change them can cause many opinions across the grid for readers and fans. Kristine Grayson seems to be able to handle this task without disappointing the reader.

I will say that Kristine Grayson and her works have been hit and miss with me. I have enjoyed some of her books, but others have not been as enjoyable. Charming Blue seems to fall in the middle of this spectrum. While I loved the plot and the characters -- including the secondary ones -- I had a really hard time getting into it. Every time I set the book down for a bit I seemed to forget what had happened before. It just wasn't memorable enough to keep me infatuated with the story. It was one to pass the time, but not one that left me with the "must read now" pull that other books have given me. For lack of better words, it didn't have the 'magic' I was expecting.

Again, while the plot and characters were fun and entertaining, it wasn't enough to keep the story flowing at a great pace. It was slow and ho-hum. While it may be another miss in this readers eyes, I still will continue reading the works this author creates because I am a sucker for fairy tale stories!
