Laurel's life has changed a lot - her family has moved to the city even though she's always lived in the country and she's going to a public school for the first time. But more changes are in store. When she suddenly sprouts wing-like petals from between her shoulder blades, she'll have to discover who her friends are and confront the reality of who she is before it's too late to prevent disaster.
This book takes a different approach than most 'fairy' stories. It was enjoyable and only occasionally predictable. Overall, I liked the characters and the story although it was a little fluffy - and the ending definitely set up a sequel, so if you're looking for a stand-alone book or don't want to wait for the next one, this may not be the book for you. I would recommend this to fantasy fans looking for some light reading, especially younger teens or people who enjoy the 'real life' fairy stories.
- If this book sounds interesting, consider these: Fablehaven, The Fairy Path Series, or Princess Nevermore
