The Executioner's Daughter

The Executioner's Daughter The title of the book I was reading is The Executioner's daughter. The author of the book I was reading is The Executioner's Daughter. The author of the book I am reading is Laura e. Williams. I really enjoy this book when I was reading it. In the book one of all the characters that I like, there is one I really like most. The character is Lily; I like her because she relates a lot to me. That is one3 of the reasons I choose this book to read. I really like this book because some parts are like if they were written for me to listen to. Lily's life is rough with her parents, and the thing that makes her cheerful is her animals and that relates to me a lot like my life. There is actually nothing I dislike about this book, everything was so incredible to read, well there is this part I kind of do not like, I wish Lily's life could be a little bit easier, I mean, because she is still a kid to have those big problems with her parents. My strongest reason to recommend this book to somebody is that they would like it like I like it. Not only that if you like a book that there is a character that does not give up to cheer somebody up, until they meet their goal. This book is right for you. I hope you will enjoy this book like I enjoy it. Have fun reading this book. Trust me I am telling you the truth, you would enjoy it.

This novel was built upon the fact that during the Middle Ages, executioners and their families were shunned, forced to live outside the village walls and forbidden to attend church and social gatherings. Thirteen-year-old Lily, the fictional main character, is cursed from the moment she was born - her father is the village executioner. But because her mother is the one to assist her father in his duties, Lily keeps to herself in the forrest near their cottage, gathering herbs and healing wounded animals, and taking comfort in her mother when her father distances himself from them. Lily loses that one comfort when her mother sickens and dies. Now Lily is doomed to be her father's assistant at executions. A gentle, quiet girl, Lily cannot bear to see an animal in pain - she doesn't know how she can ever watch executions. But Lily won't resign herself to the fate assigned to her. This was an excellant historical novel that brought the time and place of England in the 1400s, gruesome details and all, to life. It was inspiring to read a story about a young girl who chose to fight her place in life in a time when most people were forced to accept whatever their circumstances in life turned out to be, whether they liked them or not. I highly reccomend this novel to fans of historical novels ages twelve and up (the more gruesome details might disturb younger readers).
