My Thoughts: At the begining of this book, I was captivated by the story. It is written differently then anything I have read before. Each chapter, you don't know which character you're reading about until the end. Sometimes it is the same character as the one you just read, sometimes a different character. It's one of those stories where you can't see the ending going well. And, well, it ended better than I thought, but I generally didn't enjoy the ending. I just think the message the end sent seemed like it was for a different book. The story is interesting and keeps you guessing, I just couldn't fully reconcile the ending with the rest of it.

Hi Shannon,
I know you write great reviews. Now, you have a wonderful challenge. I have books on hold at the library. One is titled "Alosha." I must have put five on hold including "The Fairy Godmother" by Mercedes Lackey. Can't wait to look at all the wonderful books on your so cute faerie blog.
