Review
**** I was given a copy of this book in exchange for my honest review.****
Rylie is a normal fifteen year old girl, a few days before
her sixteenth birthday she begins to have really bad headaches. The night
before her birthday a woman comes to her house and Rylie finds out that she is
a fairy and that the dark faeries want her for the incredible power she will
have one she finishes her transformation. Rylie gets kidnapped and taken to the dark
fairy land; she is told she must marry Kallan. Rylie loves her boyfriends Adam
but she starts to have feelings about Kallan, Rylie has to figure out who she
really wants. I liked this book a lot, Rylie is a really good main female
character. She makes the best of her situation, without completely accepting it;
she still tries to find different ways to get home. Adam was a sweet normal
boy, everything a mom wants in her daughters’ boyfriend. Kallan was a bit
darker, he seemed like a jerk at first, but once you got to know him he was a
really great person. The writing was good and the suspense kept me interested.
This book had a lot going for it; I would have given it five stars, except two
things really bugged me. One I am pretty burned out on the love triangle, I
have read to many books with a love triangle, now every time I read a book with
one in it, it automatically makes me cringe. The second problem was the ending,
I know this book is supposed to be part of a series, but I it still bugged me
that the book left me with a lot of questions. Overall this is a pretty good book;
if you like books with fairies and don't mind a love triangle then you will
really enjoy these books.
