Unthinkable

Unthinkable by Nancy Werlin, 392 pages

This is a companion book to Impossible and Extraordinary and the books do not have to be read in order; they stand alone. Fenella was the first girl to be trapped by the Scarborough curse. Padraigh kidnapped her and gave her three tasks to complete. If she succeeded she would go free. Fenella, however, failed and cursed not only herself but all of her female descendants. Lucy, one of her many-times-great-granddaughters, broke the curse, which also broke Fenella’s curse. Most of her descendants died but Lucy managed to save herself, her mother, Miranda, and Fenella. Fenella, however, has also been cursed with near immortality. She has been alive for 400 years and will live for several hundred more. She makes a deal with the faeires. She will regain mortality and be able to die but to do so she must complete three acts of destruction, and the acts must be against her own family, who have already suffered much. The other catch is that if she fails, Padraigh will once again own her. Despite the possible consequences, Fenella is determined to succeed. Teens who like fantasy stories will like this book.
