Such a good book. I really loved the story. It is one of the few stories that needs to be series. The story had a start, middle and end. I loved the man character and also the development of her maybe love interests in future books. I loved how the series used midsummer nights dream as a source. I also have never seen a premise like this before. It was so unique premise that I have never seen before! I loved how megan got involved in the story and want to get my hands on the next one soon!

- the main character was so annoying.
- i expected the writing style of this book to be upper YA (aimed near about 15-18 year olds) but instead it read like a middle grade.
- the Faerie lore was not it. the main character knew nothing of the lore, so she was upset at characters for “lying and not telling her the truth” when fey can’t lie at all.

Such a nostalgic reread...this was my favourite series as a young teen and I’m still in love with Ash, still transfixed by the enchanted faery world, and still laughing at Grim.

this book was so good :)
i love the take on the faeries and the twists of the plot. it was so good and i couldnt put it down (my gramma kept laughing at me because i wouldnt).
speaking of the plot, i really loved it. in the beginning, it moved a little too quickly, but once they settled in nevernever (faeryland), everything took on the perfect pace. the ending was the best cliffhanger, as well. A!
characters: i really loved meghan. in the begginning, when robbie/puck is introducing her to the idea of faeries, she seems to accept it really quickly, which felt a little unrealistic. again, though, once she arrived in nevernever, she became a determined, slightly badass girl who was still completely relate-able. robbie/puck was hilarious, i fell in love with him so easily, as with grim. they were so entertaining and awesome. ash was awesome, too. i loved his development as they traveled through nevernever. the king/queens were great, and the bad guy was a great bad guy. (however, it was weird how he was attracted to meghan so quickly when they came face-to-face). A+
and the romance! i definitely see a love triangle approaching in the next book, and i've already chosen my side, pretty much ;p. but nevertheless, i loved how julie kagawa developed it. i can definitely tell it wont be an extremely annoying triangle, like in twilight. even though i know who i'm rooting for, i still feel like i'm rooting for the other side, too. A!
overall, definite A :) fantastic book that is a great read! i cant wait to read the other three!
