YA Faeries & Fantasy Hop ~ Ends 1/12/12 midnight



Young Adult Faeries & Fantasy 
Giveaway Hop runs from 
Friday, January 6th to Thursday, January 12th 
Hosted by:
I Am A Reader, Not A Writer & vvb32reads

Welcome and thanks for stopping by! My favorite genre to read and write is young adult fantasy...therefore, I just had to participate in this giveaway hop!  Keeping with the faerie theme, one winner will win not just one, but two books! Here's what I'm giving away!



tithe - a modern faerie tale by Holly Black 

Sixteen-year-old Kaye is a modern nomad. Fierce and independent, she travels from city to city with her mother's rock band until an ominous attack forces Kaye back to her childhood home. There, amid the industrial, blue-collar New Jersey backdrop, Kaye soon finds herself an unwilling pawn in an ancient power struggle between two rival faerie kingdoms -- a struggle that could very well mean her death. (softcover)

Wondrous Strange by Leslie Livingston 

Seventeen-year-old actress Kelley Winslow always thought faeries were just something from childhood stories. Then she meets Sonny Flannery. He's a changeling—a mortal taken as an infant and raised among Faerie—and within short order he's turned Kelley's heart inside out and her life upside down. For Kelley's beloved Central Park isn't just a park—it's a gateway between her ordinary city and the Faerie's dangerous, bewitching Otherworld. Now Kelley's eyes are opening not just to the Faerie that surround her, but to the heritage that awaits her . . . a destiny both wondrous and strange. (hardcover)

I'm new to faeries. I've only read The Iron King. I liked the ideas in it. The only thing I wished was that the main character had more backbone. The faerie parts were interesting though so I am looking to read more stories with them as the focus.

There is a book I read as a kid about a girl who found out she was a fairy when she was 13 because she started to grow green hair. I can't remember the name of the book now, but it got me into fantasy books.

I personally liked Tithe by Holly Black because it was darker and reflected modern society a lot more.
