Spoiler  later on. Decent book. Not something I'm totally crazy about and would recommend. I read it because my younger cousin wanted someone to talk to about it. Its written like a step up from a middle grade fanfic. It's trying very hard to push itself up there with Actor. It wasn't poorly written but just very 2d and predictable. I figured out the fairies could lie by like chapter 8 at the latest. Not bad but very clearly a middle grade book with adult themes even if they are a "fade to black" moment.
