How to Summon a Fairy Godmother was a fantastic spin on a fairytale retelling. This book was both surprising and refreshing. My suggestion to anyone reading this book is to let go of any predictions or preconceived notions you have about what fairytale retellings do. I love Theo, she is exactly what you want with a morally gray character. This had an interesting found family-ish set up! I can’t wait to see what happens in the second book.
