Through Smoke and Sand: The Folly of Wishes by Corrie Hathaway
5.0
Lexi has had this need to help people for years. Suddenly on her 19th birthday, it becomes overwhelming and every stranger wants her to solve a problem for them. Right as she’s about to have her first real crisis, ever, her Fairy Godmother Gussy appears! Only Gussy isn’t her Fairy Godmother. She’s there to get Lexi to join them in their fight against evil by granting HEA’s.
Throughout this story, Lexi learns not only how to trust the people in her life, but how to use her powers for the greater good, even if she has a mishap or four along the way. Her love interest is the mysterious Oliver who comes and goes as he pleases but she always falls asleep before he leaves. What could he be?
I love fantasy but it’s been a while since a book has been able to get 5 stars from me in that category. This take on Fairy Godmothers was so fun and entertaining. I read it in one setting and can see it being turned into a movie with a cult following like Hocus Pocus. Would definitely recommend if you like light, fun, magical reads.
