If you liked Ice than you will like East by Edith Pattou. I haven&#39;t read Ice yet, but I definitely plan to.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-532554391625225853.post-69115436351929864922010-01-03T10:07:21.209-05:002010-01-03T10:07:21.209-05:00I enjoyed Ice as well - I loved the descriptions of the Arctic and the ice castle. And while I found Cassie&#39;s obstinacy a bit tiresome at times (how often can you simply demand from magical beings that they help you and have them say yes with no wrangling for something in return?), I did love her determination in remaining her own person within her love story and in finding Bear. She definitely had grit!<br /><br />I enjoyed your review, so I&#39;ve linked to it <a href="http://caramellunacy.blogspot.com/2010/01/ice-sarah-beth-durst.html" rel="nofollow">here</a>.Lanahttp://www.blogger.com/profile/05727580109068393725noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-532554391625225853.post-12692473912478176522009-11-08T12:49:53.652-05:002009-11-08T12:49:53.652-05:00I&#39;m so excited about reading this book after seeing it spoken of so highly.
