Do you love books about the "little people?" I do! I thought I'd share with you a list of a few of the more recent books and their authors who touch on fairy themes. I hope you enjoy them as much as I do. If you'd like me to cover a different theme, please, make a suggestion or two!
The Waters and the Wild by Francesca Lia Block - Bee has always known she's not quite normal, but after she sees "herself" in her own bedroom, she begins to realize she might be a fairy changeling. A short novel that will linger in your mind
Wings by Aprilynne Pike - Laurel doesn't know why she's so different from all the kids she has just started going to school with (except she's a strict vegan) until a lump on her back bursts into a flower! She must discover who and what she is... and what life holds in store for her.
Wicked Lovely, Ink Exchange and Fragile Eternity by Melissa Marr. These three interconnected novels follow the lives of Aislinn, Leslie and Seth, who are unwillingly drawn into the world of the Dark Fey. Will they survive their brushes with the wickedly immortal?
Faeries Landing by You Hyon - this graphic novel series is about a young man who, by accident, stumbles into the world of the fey and ends up with his own personal faery; and a curse to have 108 doomed relationships before he finds his true love.
Last of the High Kings by Kate Thompson - based on Irish mythology (and what better for fairy tales?), this story involves a changeling, a ghost and a mysterious magical object that may spell the end of the world.
Good Neighbors: Kin, book 1 by Holly Black - after her mother's disappearance, Rue Silver finds out that her mother was a fairy, her father is suspected of murder, and her whole world may be nothing like she believed it was. First in a graphic novel series.
