Synopsis: My name is Yuna Queenertia,
I woke up one day with nearly no memories. Not my home. Not my family. Nothing...but my name.
In my awakening, I am introduced to a short, old woman named Granny. A young, optimistic girl named Sam. Her mother, Anna. And a mysterious girl named Claire. My world grows colder knowing I was in a coma. If that wasn't enough, I come to learn of the world I live in.
Magic. A thing of fiction. A thing of mystery. Abundant and thriving; fantasy became my reality. But the world of magic is not what it seems.
Minor flashbacks of my past begin to surface. Granny and those I know hold more secrets than they tell. A serial killer called the Phantom runs rampant within the village. Born with silver hair, I come to find I am a curse. And a target to the village I live in.
My personality begins to split as I am pushed to fighting for who I am. But who am I really? Am I Yuna Queenertia? Or the Cursed Queen?
My name is Yuna Queenertia, and this is my tale.

Review: I thought this was a well done book! It was intriguing, the plot kept me intrigued for the whole of the book, and the characters were well developed. I also loved the world the author managed to make up for this and they developed it well.

However, I do think that there were things in this book that were added and could have been used for the plot but weren't and leave the reader confused.

Verdict: A well done book! Worth the read!
