Review: 3 1/2 because I felt like it could have been developed some more

I admit that I was drawn to this book tour because I am a big fan of the color purple. The idea of a girl who turned everything purple just by touching it seemed very intriguing to me and I was curious to see about her adventures.Violet is feared by the townspeople because of her gift. They ridicule her and shun her and her family. She has no friends. Until she meets a young man who seems intrigued by her and accepts her for who she is. When he has to leave, she is devastated and goes on an adventure to find him again. His unconditional acceptance helps her to learn to accept herself.I liked the message of the story about accepting yourself for who you are. I liked the relationship between Violet and Frankie. I did want more out of it and felt like some parts of the storyline should have been further developed. While this story did come to an end and was an appropriate length for the intended audience, it needs more. Perhaps the author will go back to some of those bits and create more stories. Violet is a great character who deserves more attention!I received a complimentary copy in exchange for my honest review.
