I decided to read this book for 2& reasons. #1 is that it had a HILARIOUS title (or at least I thought so.) Anywayays reason #2 is that the glittery cover caught my eye because I personally LOVE glittery things. Here are 3 solid reasons why you should read this book. #1 is that it isn't a soppy love story I mean it does have some really ackward parts. But doesn't every book have those? Reason #2 is that this book keeps it interesting it have great cliffhangers and it has a new twist around every chapter! My #3 reason is that it's a totally original book. It doesn't go along with your normal storyline,villain,or as you can see on the cover, small persons with wings!

Ever since she was teased for believing in fairies, Mellie has adopted a strictly scientific and logical approach to life. But when her parents inherit her grandfather's inn, she learns that for generations, her family members have been fairy guardians. The fairies exchanged some of their powers for this protection but now they want their magic back. An evil temptress in disguise wants the magic too, and before she knows it, Mellie is turned into a frog, her grandfather is discovered alive, and her parents are trapped in an evil spell that only lets them see the truth (which can be awfully brutal). Thank goodness for Timmo - the cute boy next door - and Durindana, a fairy outcast, who help Mellie save the day and encourage her to loosen up her views on family, fairies, and friendship.
This is a hilarious, irreverent, and highly sarcastic take on fairies-who, by the way, just hate to be called fairies.

I think sometimes this book can get a little confusing, but I think it is interesting and really got me hooked right from the beginning. I got it out of the book order and started reading it right away. It was really slow at first but then it got exiting.
