Spells

Aprilynne Pike's second book about the world of fairies builds on the concepts of the first book, and furthers the story. In both books, she creates a unique world of fairies. Wings is the name of the first book, Spells is the recent release, and there are four books planned for the series. This book is written for young adults, and is therefore an easy read for adults. If you like fairy stories, you may like this unique twist on an old theme.

This story also provided some interesting discussions at our house about dating because the main character, Laurel, is caught between two competing love interests. This dilemma highlights the larger dilemma of her life, that of being caught between the human world and the fairy world.

This story will be enjoyed by girls, and perhaps adults, that are interested in fairy stories.
