Extraordinary- A book review.

Monday, April 9, 2012


This is my latest read. I have no idea how I am finding the time for it. Well actually I do. It is called not sleeping. I bought this last summer on super sale at Borders when they still existed. Insert sad face here. I will be real with you guys. There are FAIRIES in this book. Straight up fairy world and all, but I read it. The whole thing. I need to read some adult books.

Synopsis:
"Phoebe finds herself drawn to Mallory, the strange and secretive new kid in school, and the two girls become as close as sisters . . . until Mallory's magnetic older brother, Ryland, shows up during their junior year. Ryland has an immediate, exciting hold on Phoebe-but a dangerous hold, for she begins to question her feelings about her best friend and, worse, about herself."

 Pros:
I read the whole thing. I am not sure if it was really that good... but obviously something made me keep going.
I am a fan of fantasy stuff.
It is about friendship which is obviously good.

Cons:
Slightly ridiculous premise. FAIRIES? I AM A 22 YEAR OLD GIRL.
Really sad. A girls self image can really get her down. 

Overall I am not really sure that I have much to say about this book. I feel like my life is the same. Nothing super profound. A fun silly read that might intrigue you on a balmy summer day next to the pool.

2/5.
