This book by Juliet Marillier was left behind by an American friend who was visiting. Its teen female fiction.
Fantasy and Romance all mixed into one.
I found it way more interesting and the story telling style was far superior to Stephanie Meyer (I admit I read all 4 parts of the Twilight Saga in 2 days). Its a wonder that Juliet Marillier hasn't got more acclaim.
Wildwood Dancing actually had a story to its name. Teen angst and young love is portrayed way better in this book than any of the Twilight books. One of the heroes here is also the bad boy who is actually good.
Wish they would make this into a movie. It would be so beautiful. I can just imagine the fun the costume designers would have.
If you have teenage sisters or daughters, I would highly recommend the author. I'm trying to get more of her books but they don't seem to be sold in India. Oh well, will wait for a foreign trip or a visiting friend.
