i passed this book many times whenever I head into my bookstore, but to tell you the truth there wasn't much appeal whenever I picked it up. The novel focuses on a girl named Laurel and her life as a faery. Yes, a faery. Honestly, when I was younger, I wasn't the type of girl who dreamed of having fairy birthday parties and ever adoring tales of fairies and such. So I don't know what came over me, when I walked out of the store with this book is my hands.
but like a lot of times, I tend to judge a book by its cover (and the first page). I read somewhere that someone considered the book as a 'twilight meets harry potter' book, but I think that's a total understatement. Sure, there is a frustrating love triangle and the realm of the faeries fit quite well for the mystical world of fantasy. Like I said before, I'm not a huge fan on fantasy, you know like the lord of the ring kind of detail is such a put off. But having said that, the book doesn't detail it a lot but at the same time makes me wonder about the faerry world that Laurel is introduced too.
what's cool about books and love triangles is that they're all different and none are comparable to each other. Honest to God, I'm team neutral and like Laurel completely undecided. This is totally sweet and would recommend you grab it fast. I'm hyped in reading the next installment of this four-part series. Also, Disney claimed filming rights to the novel and looks like it'll come out 2011/2012, Miley Cyrus is meant to be Laurel, which I think is perfect!
