Book Review - Veiled Mist by Eleanor T. Beaty

On the Caribbean island of Maurray, spoiled-rotten, fifteen-year-old Hanna wakes up to a nightmare. She is not the daughter of an aristocrat but the orphan of a Gypsy. She is the descendant to a mystical Gypsy tribe. Their magic is strong and has lasted six hundred years. Ornella, the tribe’s guardian, arrives at the island with her mutt, Count Dracula, to guide Hanna. Hanna is told she must embrace her heritage or die at the ripe age of seventeen. But Hanna does the unthinkable, she chooses death. She hates Gypsies and would rather die. What she doesn’t know is that her death will destroy the entire tribe. What she also doesn’t know is how persuasive Ornella can be. The nightmare begins.

Veiled Mist is a great book for a young adult.  Eleanor does a great job creating her main character - Hannah.  Hannah actually reminds me of many teens who just see the world from their own little space and may not always see the bigger picture.  This story is fun and insightful and very different from what I expected - pleasantly.  Although this book is paranormal in nature it shows through its plot just how any person's life can literally change in the blink of an eye.  I have only ever read one gypsy related story before and this was very entertaining.  I love fun stories and this was definitely fun yet insightful.  4 star story.

I received a copy of this book in exchange for an honest review.
