My rating: 5 of 5 stars

This was an adorable book! A very relatable heroine, and two wonderful boys who come into her life. Anybody reading this will have a dream guy/gal described in it! So sweet, heartwarming, and a very fun read. I would recommend this to anybody wanting a happy, coming of age book with a lot of personal growth and love.

This book had me on the edge of my seat from the first page until the last. Suspense is personally a lot for me to handle, but if you like that feeling, this is the book for you. The writing is clear and easily understood, great descriptions of the environment and scenes, as if you are there.

Very fun first book to read. Main characters are relatable and entertaining to read about and follow throughout the plot.

This was such a fun book. The main character faces a challenge all teens face around the age of 17, an identity crisis. Not knowing exactly who she is, what she wants, or where she belongs. This book takes this concept to a fun level where it is understandable for all. Read this book if you like a coming of age novel, magic, and friendship.

So cool! I’m not sure I’ve ever read a book about fairies, but this was very well done! The world was fun to follow, and I love that it was co-existing completely outside of our world. The relationship between the two main characters is great and the Romeo and Juliet feel is fun to listen to! Read this book if you like great world building, cool stories, and characters you’d fight for!

My rating: 4 of 5 stars

That was actually really interesting! I’ve never read a book like this, but I’ve always wanted to travel. It was fun to read a book that contained some of England’s history, most traveled spots, and places people don’t travel there that are beautiful and must-see. The author tied it in with stories, and it made the book more than just a travel guide.
