Written by Emma Carroll
At first I was reticent to read this book because it’s about a girl who discovers her ability to see fairies. Fairies are cool, depicted in certain ways, but I wasn’t sure if this story might be a little “girly” for me. How wrong I was! The book is not really about fairies, they are just a backdrop. This story keeps you wanting to read. With the creativity and stupendous plot, I couldn’t say no.
