   Goodreads Summary: "It isn't easy being the rather overlooked and unhappy youngest sibling to sisters named for the other six days of the week. Sunday’s only comfort is writing stories, although what she writes has a terrible tendency to come true.

When Sunday meets an enchanted frog who asks about her stories, the two become friends. Soon that friendship deepens into something magical. One night Sunday kisses her frog goodbye and leaves, not realizing that her love has transformed him back into Rumbold, the crown prince of Arilland—and a man Sunday’s family despises.

The prince returns to his castle, intent on making Sunday fall in love with him as the man he is, not the frog he was. But Sunday is not so easy to woo. How can she feel such a strange, strong attraction for this prince she barely knows? And what twisted secrets lie hidden in his past - and hers?"

       
     Review:

  • I wanted to read this for a long time, it looked really good and the summary captivated me.
  • It wasn't good as I thought it'd be, reminded me of Ash by Malinda Lo
  • I liked the romance and the prince.
  • It was a little cheesy, with the situation that Sunday's family was in and what Sunday loved to do.
  • I recommend it for faery tale lovers, but not for those who most of the time read dystopian and science fiction novels.
