Katie wasn't the most popular girl in school. In fact, she was cat-called and snubbed by nearly everybody. She and her cat "Green eyes" would take a walk into the woods to the big oak and dream of adventures that made her happy. The big oak held a secret that Katie would soon discover concerned her and her cat. An enchanting and dangerous adventure, and a terrific read. Find out for yourself. Pick up your copy today. Oh, and the e-book has some amazing art work in it, too! Really, it is just an enchanting read.

I had to put this book down. I seldom call it quits with a book, but this is one of those that I just couldn't drag myself through.
I read all manner of books and for all ages. This was a young adult, or younger book, but it was so heavy with "stuff" that I couldn't hack it. That and the fact it was written in the British style where there is a period before the end quote mark, followed by the tag.
Example: "John knew Boots was nearby when the accident happened." Joe said.
It bothered me a lot to constantly see that, but that was minor compared to the ins and outs of the story. I'm not quite sure why I could not go further, but there was so much going on and more and more outrageous things that may appeal to others, but I didn't see an end to it all.
I'm a reader who loves great detail, but the way the details were presented in Chimes didn't make the story endearing. Let me know how you rated/liked this book. I don't have it in me to finish to the end.

This was a fun story that was very well developed. There was an array of characters introduced throughout and they were all well developed. I felt the author did a great job putting this story together and making it possible to stand alone or be continued. Definitely worth giving a read.

The Chimes In the Tree is a wonderful tale of a young girl truly finding herself. She enters a magical world where she meets seven protectors of the Kingdom of Chapparel who become her close allies on a quest to save the King and Queen and their children from the spell the whole city is under by the devious Osiris. There is also a spirit guide to guide her, as she learns to trust her own instincts. She enters as a young frightened child, but leaves as a warrior princess who is afraid of nothing. This book is quite Disney-like in the strong female characters they have been doing in their stories of late. Also a bit Harry Potter-like with the creatures that are throughout the story. Good reading for tweens through adult. You want to be Katie. I loved it!
