I would have also liked it if Kyra would have more obstacles after she got the poisons. Even though I loved how the book ended I would have liked it if they changed the beginning because I felt that it was too slow. I like how it kept me on a loop with the story unfolding bit by bit, and just when I thought I knew what would happen. Although in the beginning I thought it was going to be a typical book, where Kyra was just going to kill her best friend and be on the run for the rest of her life, it wasn’t. With Kyra and Fred give one another kiss. This is one of the last quotes that Fred told Kyra before the book ended. For example Kyra falling in love, and how they give each character such a great sense of humor/confidence, and also how you have to find out who Ariana really is which is the greatest mystery of all.

My thoughts regarding ‘Poison’ are that I really enjoyed it because this book was not only fantastic, but it also had a bit of romance, comedy, and mystery behind it. Although she runs through many obstacles like almost being eaten by a witch, drowning, and not being able to move due to her enchantment necklace, she won’t stop until she has defeated the imposter and saves the kingdom from evil. Doing what she thinks is right, she attempts to kill, the future ruler, which also happens to be her best friend. Which also means that she is the only one who can stop it before it’s too late and all the people she cares about and the kingdom get hurt. Kyra is a sixteen year old girl, skilled potion master, who is the only one who knows her kingdom is on the edge of destruction.

She is obligated by her father to get married, so she can get magically bound to her land. Lastly, would be Ariana the soon to be princess. They later meet again when Kyra saves Fred from trolls with her magic potions. He meets Kyra when she is crossing the river and almost drowns. Next would be Fred and his dog named Langley. Rosie was given to Kyra from Arlo ( leader of all criminals) to help her track down the princess. Another important character of this book would be the pig named Rosie. This story takes place in the kingdom of Mohr, where the main character, Kyra, has a conflict with herself because she needs to kill her best friend, Ariana, due to her seeing a vision of Ariana destroying the kingdom. Unfortunately ‘Poison’ is the only book that she was able to write before, she lost her battle with cancer. Bridget Zinn created Poison because it was what she wanted to read but wasn’t able to find. “How you look isn’t about the face your were born with, it’s what you do with it.” This is just one of many great quotes by Bridget Zinn, the author of Poison.
