KETURAH AND LORD DEATH: Martine Leavitt: Front Street:Young Adult: 2006: 214
All Keturah ever wanted was to marry a kind peasant man, have a baby, and lead a simple peasant life. Instead, she becomes lost in the woods for days and upon encountering Lord death makes a deal with him for her life. Keturah is given one more day to find her true love and if she does Lord Death will not take her. On her quest Keturah learns many new skills and inspires the townsfolk to make their small town better than it was before. But will Keturah find her true love, or will Lord Death take her in the end? This Young Adult Fantasy/Romance was an enjoyable, light read. It was mostly fun fairy tale stuff, but some of the issues dealing with life and death, while interesting at times, got a little bit convoluted and hard to make sense of. All in all, a fun fairy tale and a surprisingly enjoyable romance.
