Hi, and welcome to my stop on the tour!! Thanks for stopping in today!
Sorry to post so late this morning, normally everything goes live by
8:00 am, but things have been really crazy lately with sick kids and
broken water tanks. You know, the usual lol. Anyway below, you will
find info on the book, the author, E. Latimer, and of course, My
Thoughts (cause I love to share!!). Oh, and make sure you check out
other stops on the tour for author interviews, guest posts, and lots
more fun!
SYNOPSIS: Megan
Walker’s touch has turned to ice. She can’t stop the frost, and
the consequences of her first kiss are horrifying.
When
her new powers attract attention, Megan finds herself caught up in an
ancient war between Norse giants. One side fuelled by a mad queen’s
obsession and an ancient prophecy about Ragnarök, the other by an
age-old grudge. Both sides believe Megan to be something she’s not.
Both sides will stop at nothing to have her.
Fire
or frost. It’s an impossible decision, but she’ll have to act
soon, because the storm is coming.

ABOUT
THE AUTHOR
Erin
Latimer is a young adult fantasy writer who currently resides in
Vancouver, BC. She writes books, makes silly vlogs about writing with
the YA Word nerds, and reads excessively. She has had an article
featured in Chicken Soup For the Soul, and another in the Dear Teen
Me online anthology. But mostly she writes about murderous queens and
the magical teens who fight them.

My
Thoughts:
The
Cover: The
cover for Frost was beautiful. Our main character (maybe) graces the
cover in a gorgeous gown. The snowy background make me cold just
looking at it! This cover promised so much.
The
Plot:
I was not very impressed that our author choose to write off the Thor
story line. It just rubbed me the wrong way. When it is first
introduced, I know it sounded familiar. Then it just hit me, that
these were Marvel characters. But other than that fact, the story
itself was well done and kept me guessing on what would happen next.
I didn't find there was too much of “the next obvious thing”
happening.
The
Characters:
The characters were fairly well written, although our main character
seemed a little flaky. I loved both the main male characters, who
were trying to save Megan, although I must admit that I liked Loki
better. He just seemed more sincere. The ice queen sent ice through
my vains the moment she was introduced. She just seemed that evil!
Is
it Worth Reading?:
Yes, especially if you are a superhero fan. It is unique and I
devoured it like chocolate cake! Ice cream cake cause we are talking
frost giants! I recommend Frost for fans of YA fantasy and mythology
and I give it 4 out of 5 crossbows!
