Wings by Aprilynne Pike
3.0

Wings is a nice book. I am unfamiliar with faerie folklore and very new to the world of the Fey so I didn't have much expectations.

My first thought is that faeries are a childish fascination. I mean what little girl doesn't want to be a faerie? So believe me when I say I thought this book was going to be boring. However that being said, the ending brought about questions I want answers to. This book might be worth the read if your interested in learning about Lauren's past. Honestly, I'm surprised by my interest.

This book is a mood book for me. I'm governed by moods when it comes to reading. I liked that Wings isn't a demanding book, you can just read at your own pace and there's no urgency. Some books you just need to race through and others that isn't necessary. Wings was slow paced at the beginning then started to get interesting toward the end.

I enjoyed the book when Tamani was more involved. I find Laurel and David a little bland for my taste. However, love triangles always makes things more interesting. Sorry David, but at this time I find Tamani captivating. Team Tamani!

Wings is a nice, simple introduction to faeries. It's an easy read, well suited for young teens. Though it isn't a favourite, I'm sure I will read it again. I'm hoping that the next books in the series will grow on me with some more intrigue, magic and mystery.
