The Drum: The Twelfth Day

“Twelve days, twelve gifts. Hey, somebody ought to write a song about that.”
Haha. Very funny.
The Twelve Days of Christmas was first published 1780, as “The Twelve Days of Christmas sung at King Pepin's Ball”.

No, I didn't like this book much, because I, frankly, hate Penny. I hate heroines who whine about everything being their fault. Accidents happen. No, it's her cursed luck!
She slips like everyone else. No, it's her cursed luck!
People get sick and die. No, it's her cursed luck!
What ever happens, it's somehow her fault. I can't stand that attitude!

And I'm rather upset right now, because this book series started so well! Still at #8 I was prepared to read the next book series about brides of Noelle, but after this one... not so sure.
