I hadn’t realized when I started this book that it was a sequel to another book prior. All things considered, I really did enjoy Wild Hare’s daughter. I didn’t have any difficulty following along or relating to the characters, especially gravitating toward Amy. I really liked the writing style of this new to me author. Switching between Bobby and Amy’s perspective throughout the book really gives a larger picture and is one of my favorite elements in a lot of books I’ve read. I felt the writing was strong and the dystopian aspects mixed with reality really made this a unique story for me. I would definitely consider reading more from this author.

Intriguing magical world
Wild Hare’s Daughter is a fascinating read. Set in a dystopian world where magic exists but not accepted, the FMC finds that all is not what she believed. I enjoyed the paranormal mix of fairies, water sprites, and other creatures. This is an easy read, the writing smooth and with creative world building. Even though this can be read as a stand-alone, I feel reading Wild Hare first would enrich this story so much more.

They were just a normal kid with a normal life, albeit a quiet one with regards to friends and a loud one when it came to life at home, but living in a small town with a population of 800 can do that to a person. There is only one drawback to living where they did and that is the militia, they are a group of people who are arrogant and think that they know best, they also try to cover up their incompetence around a jailbreak and the mysterious disappearance of a congressman with rumours about magic and it just so happens that the rumour about magic is actually true.

However, for this person, living in a small town did have its advantages and finding out which of the people living there is their dad is one of them, it can be narrowed down quickly by age and the rest is a process of elimination. However, this search is narrowed down even more when they discover that that they are magical, they discover that they can fly, although it started off as just levitating in the bathroom, now they can go anywhere in the town!

This discovery also means that someone else in the town is magical and that it can only have been inherited from their dad! This is a magical tale of family, secrets and trust as one persons world changes and they have to adapt to this new situation they find themselves in, in a not too distant dystopian future.

Wow! From the first page I was hooked! I couldn’t put this book down! I absolutely loved how the story is laid out so you know exactly whose point of view you are following at every stage. Growing up in a small town, it always felt like you couldn’t ever have a secret because everyone knew everything but this story showed it is still possible not to know everything even if you think you do.

I will say there were many points in the story where I was shocked or thrown. It was not as predictable as I initially thought it would be! I loved it!

This novel was really enjoyable. Being able to go on Amy’s journey to finding out more about herself and finding her father was fun. The concept of the book was a little different than what I normally read but that made it more interesting. The world that the author created was vibrant and I found myself wishing I could spend time in it. I recommend this book to anyone who has an interest in reading a paranormal book that is a little different.

This was a really interesting read – it was a little out of my comfort zone but the synopsis sounded interesting so I thought that I would give it a go and I wasn’t disappointed. I found myself really engaged in the story and with Amy’s character. I was really hoping that she would find out what she wanted to about her father. There was a good amount of suspense in the story which definitely kept me wondering whilst I was reading.
I haven’t read anything by this author previously so I think I would definitely like to read the previous book to this and find out more about some of the characters.
Overall, a really interesting story and one that I would recommend.

Wild Hare’s daughter was pleasantly good! I love magic books and anything about fairies and this one did not disappoint. I loved reading about Amy coming to terms with herself and finding out who she was. It was also nice to have Bobby’s point of view as well. Overall a great story!

Amy isn’t normal, a quality she believes is inherited from her absentee-biological-father. This wouldn’t be a bad thing, if being considered ‘magical’ wasn’t a bad thing, and the risk of exposure was small… But after a prions break, thought to be the work of a magical militia, Amy realizes she needs answers as her abilities begin to unexpectedly manifest. I liked how the story was written from two perspectives, Amy and Bobby, because of how well-defined their characters were. This dystopian world drew me in from the start, thanks to the vivid descriptions and complex characters, and held my attention throughout.

Captivating. Imaginative. Angsty.

Those are the three words I would use to describe Amy’s journey to finding a relationship with her father. She flies through her town searching for answers and trying to solve adult problems all while trying to balance high school. She does all of it with a smile on her face.

I enjoyed reading this book. It kept my attention. I wanted to keep flipping to the next page. The second book to this duology was my favorite out of the two. I enjoyed the drama between Amy and her Evil Step Dad. It was entertaining to watch Bobby try to become a father. The relationship between Taylor and Bobby is always sweet to watch. I feel as though Sally was a bit too headstrong in this one but I enjoyed watching her grow as a character. Overall this book was like watching a comfortable sitcom on a Sunday night.

This is just a side-not to the author. A few of the names got switched around in the second book. Mrs. Allen’s name and Bryan’s name got switched around to Ryan. There were a couple of grammar and spelling problems that made it hard to read at times. This doesn’t take away from my review at all, I just wanted to let the author know!

Dystopian books are a unique genre to read, and sometimes difficult. This story was anything but. The author gave us such vivid imagery and immense detail to where you were as much in the story as the other characters. Amy is a young teen who is ready and on a mission to find out who her father is in the small town she lives in. As she embarks on this journey she learns that her father is close, and magic is real….and within her. This was a great tale of self discovery and enlightenment. I would pick up another book by this author again!

I always find this author to be a very intriguing storyteller with a unique point of view and original voice. I appreciate the journey that unfolded as I turned each page. This dystopian tale was one that was unexpected yet touching and somehow relatable. The character development was solid and I enjoyed the magic that was sprinkled throughout. A worthwhile read.

The author did a great job developing the characters and storyline. This was a delightful surprise of a book, where the reader is immersed into a world where fairies exist and attempt to blend into the human world. You simultaneously get to glimpse into the life of Amy, a teenage girl who lives with her mom and abusive stepdad and one day discovers she’s not entirely human, and Bobby, a Wild Hare fairy who works as a gardener and wrestles with his own secrets. When the two finally interact, and Amy confronts what she’s suspected all along – that Bobby is her father – they each work through the strangeness of being a part of each other’s lives. There’s so much going on in each of the two main characters’ lives, it’s kind of like looking at a dreamcatcher; bits and pieces of this and that all woven together to create something that’s cohesive and unique.

A very interesting book. I read a lot of sci-fi and fantasy books, but I’ve never quite read one like this. The author is very descriptive and makes you feel like you are in the story. Read this book if you enjoy being entertained and whisked off to a world you never thought existed.

I wasn’t expecting how amazing this book was. It was a nice easy read and short, and so filled with amazing little twists and turns on what happens. The way they kid’s and town stand up for the way they are getting treated by others nit from there, or are they kids? This book makes you think about how this town and place works. and standing up for one another. I really like how the characters care about ones that are the same as them. how they help each other out. This book was incredible for the way its written. If you like reading about supernatural stuff and the care and love they all have for family and people like them and standing up for them, I highly suggest this book.

Wild Hare’s Daughter was so much better than I expected! This is a new story to me, and I didn’t read the first book in the series, Wild Hare. That being said, this book can (and was) enjoyed without feeling like I was missing something. I was pleasantly surprised to learn it was told from the main character’s point of view, and her DAD’s. More often that not, when we hear a story about a daughter, the focus is on the mother. I really liked this book, it was catchy. The characters were very personable and their relationships real and down to earth. You can feel their personality shining through with their mannerisms and thoughts and language. I really connected and now will go back and read the first book. I will say, I don’t love the cover art- it didn’t draw me in, and now really looking at it, I see so much more than just blue. Highly recommend, and look forward for more.

What a fun and whimsical tale! I loved getting to know these characters. This story of self discovery follows a girl named Amy who realizes she has the ability to fly but has no idea why. As she explores her newfound magical ability, she also tries to find her father. Amy is a lovable character and it was easy to support her on her emotional journey. The magical world created by the author was beautifully imaginative and I could clearly see every detail as I read. The story was an easy and fun read!

3.5 Stars

 

Wild Hare’s Daughter by Laura Koerber is an interesting and original dystopian story with magical realism, a near future setting, politics, crime, secrets, fairies, tension, imagination, and intriguing characters- all playing out in a small town setting.
Even though this could be read as a standalone, I really wish I had read Wild Hare first before starting this book, as I feel that knowing what happened there would have enhanced my reading experience of this book even more. So, I plan to dive into Wild Hare to remedy that oversight asap.

Thank you, Laura Koerber!

What an unexpected spin on fantasy and magic! I really enjoyed this book and realize there is another which I will be reading ASAP! Honestly though, this book was an adventure where not everything is as we have perceived it before. It had all the best magical characters and the plot and flow of the story made it such an easy enjoyable read! The author showcases real “Out of the box” talent and the ability to totally capture your attention within her story. Just awesome!

This book was just perfect on so many levels. Right from the beginning the characters are relatable, the plot flows and has perfect dimension, and the overall word building is perfect. Full of magic, suspense, angst, family issues and more this story was detail oriented and just simply amazing right from the beginning. While our main character Amy wants nothing more then to figure out her life, what will happen when she finds put she has magic powers? On a road to trying to discover herself will she find out who her father is? Will she be able to live the life she wants with these new powers? You’ll have you read this story to find out for yourself.

I really enjoyed this story. I was pulled into the story from the very beginning. The author does an amazing job of bringing magic and magical beings into the normal world and making them feel realistic. Amy comes across as a typical teenager who’s trying to juggle family, friends and school while also finding her path.

Amy is on the search her real dad. She thinks she has figured out who he is and really needs to talk to him because something strange is happening. Amy has learnt she can’t fly.
Amy feels this is something to do with her dad because her mum is normal and shows no magical powers but with her mother keeping the identity of her father secret she has to try and figure it out on her own.

When strange things start happening in her small town she knows there are other magical people in her town but who are they?
As Amy trys to continue with life as normal as possible while she tries to work things out she also learns a big lesson. You can’t always trust the people you think you can.

This is a great story where you have a young girl that is trying to find out who her father is while also discovering her magical abilities. Finding out she can fly Amy searches for her father for answers. Along the way she learns secrets that she never thought were possible not only about herself but also the world around her. Amy is a strong willed girl who just wants to understand who she is. Great story and something I would highly recommend others read as well.

For me this was an unexpectedly enjoyable read. I hadn’t really been tol taken in by the description but, having read previous books by this author, decided to give it a go and I’m glad I did. I found the story to be well thought out and interested. The characters were diverse and intriguing to read about. They all had their own part within the story.
I enjoyed the fact that even thought it is a dystopian novel the prevalent theme felt to me like family. It gave the book a different feel from others I have read of this genre. Overall I thought the book was enjoyable from start to finish and well worth the time.

Wild Hare’s Daughter (Wild Hares) by Laura Koerber. This is a great dystopian read. Its about a girl named Amy who is searching for her father. She’s almost positive she’s figured out who he is because the town she lives in is not that big. Timing could not be better to find him because Amy has discovered that she can fly. What in the world is going on? Amy is just like any other kid juggling parents, school, friends and add that extra thing, magic. Amy is learning that life is more than black and white and that not everyone in your life you can count on. It takes place in small town Wisconsin and its during a militia type government. Realizing that magic is real and others have the gift makes Amy realize things are very different. Can Amy find her father and find out what is happening in her small town? This can be read as a standalone.

This is a well written story, that is both fast paced and still plot driven. I thoroughly enjoyed this book. The characters are well developed and draw you into the story. This paranormal dystopian novel is about Amy trying to find her dad, but during her journey finds herself. Amy can fly but doesn’t know why. As she searches for answers she uncovers secrets, lies and maybe more than she bargained for. This was one of those books you can’t put down.

This isn’t a genre I read often but once I started I was pulled right in. This was a great suspenseful 5 star read. This is a fast paced read about Amy who decides to search for her father to get some answers and hopefully have a relationship with him. I was on the edge of my seat waiting to see what was coming next and to see if she would succeed. There are so many things going on, the author does a great job with her writing. All of the characters added a great element to the story. I also enjoyed the story because I live in Wisconsin not far from where this story was set. Just made it a little extra special. You can read this book as a stand alone but you may want to read book one first so you get the back story. I look forward to reading more from this author. 1-click and get started today.

What starts out as a story of a girl trying to find her dad turns into so much more than that within the pages of this book.

Amy is pretty sure she has figured out who her father is…and the timing is perfect because she needs someone who can help her figure out what’s going on with her. You see, she has recently begun to fly. That’s right…she has magic and she needs someone figuring out her secret before she could control it. Therefore, she needed to find Daddy Dear…and soon!

What follows is a story of a girl trying to navigate magic, high school, family history and family secrets. An entire world was brought to life throughout the book and I really enjoyed it. It was a very touching book that told a good story that kept my attention from start to end. This was a quick read for me…probably because I couldn’t put it down!

Wild Hare’s Daughter is a story full of family, magic, and more. I like the incorporation of magic and realism to tell the story. The story and characters are interesting and left me wishing I had read the first book before this one. I would have liked more to the backstory, but now I have another book to read. I enjoyed the development of the characters and story. It is an interesting dystopian setting that adds to the storyline. I look forward to reading more from this author in the future.
