My Thoughts on Blind Sight Through the Eyes of Aniela Dawson:
Aniela Dawson is part of the royal family on the island of Edaion. She's the youngest of three children and the youngest princess. Her older sister, Tia, is not favored by their mother, but instead, Aniela receives her sister's birthright because she is the "better" of the two sisters - she listens and does everything she is supposed to do.
When Aniela meets Leocardo and Odette, she becomes involved with them, I'm not sure why she's drawn to them, but she becomes immersed in their lives and gets caught up in Odette's gift and Leocardo's drama.
Told from Aniela's point of view, one would expect to really get to know her better, but I still don't. She is nice, sweet and likable to others, but I didn't feel any kind of connection. I did learn more about her story and her family life, but I needed more - a realism that wasn't happening for me.
I did enjoy the plot to this book as well as getting to see more of the Royal family, but with no real connection with the main character, I found this book to be just an OK read.

Both books are "volume one" you can read one without the other and still get a complete story, but you won't see how the characters interpret the same situation differently.
Buy the book! Both volumes are available as an e-book for Kindle (Aniela's vol. / Leocardo's vol.) and Nook (Aniela's vol. / Leocardo's vol.) Don't have an e-reader, pick up a PDF on Smashwords (Aniela's vol. / Leocardo's vol.)
The paperback special edition will be available in the fall (northern hemisphere).
