The Good Fairies of New York by Martin Millar
3.0
This book is a whole lot of WTF just happened.
The book stars Scottish fairies Heather and Morag who end up in New York after getting banished from Scotland. There they meet Dinnie who is overweight, anti-social, and a terrible violin player and Kerry who suffers from Crohn's disease which leaves her with a colostomy bag that she hates and a strong desire to finish a collection of rare flowers before she dies.
Throw into the mix a large amount of alcohol for the fairies, a bag lady who thinks she's a general in an ancient Greek army, street brawls between racially segregated fairy gangs, a dead rock stars ghost, a Cornish fairy invasion force and the fact that Heather and Morag fight over everything and things are just insane.
This book did have some humorous parts, but it was so outrageously random that it didn't really do it for me.
