“The Fae” consist of an entire race of so many different beings that it had my head spinning – but in a good way!
Just when I thought faeries were nothing more than miniature people with pixie wings, I read this book and am thrust into a whole new world of mythical creatures and oddities that I had not heard of before. I especially liked the very apt, age appropriate banter between the characters of the different realms. Not the most original story-line but so nicely written with skillful character building and descriptions. But a visit from Keir in the epilogue to deliver a gift rekindles their connection and makes me want to follow their story when they reconnect…as they surely must. No cliffhanger here to send me diving headlong into the sequel, instead the ending leaves us with the promise of Jynx returning and Molly exploring her fae glamour skills in the real world. On the other side of the rift magic becomes the norm in her new world and with some fae help Alexis gets on with the task of finding her friend. When Alexis encounters a strange man at a party asking questions about her best friend Molly, it starts a chain of events that takes Alexis not only out of her comfort zone as far as believing in faeries is concerned, but out of her human realm.

Really liked the enticing prologue that promised a dark fae story full of intrigue and danger. I would certainly join Alexis and Molly in their next adventure in Divided Worlds, which is the second book in the series. Reading the book and delving into the faery world not only satisfied my thirst but also made me crave more. I never outgrew my fantasies about faeries. I grew up reading fairy tales like any other girl. Alexis, was the best choice for a protagonist, who isn't perfect but a strong-willed character whereas Molly was different than her in every aspect and yet the bond of friendship they shared was remarkable.Between Worlds is the perfect book to start a series, it is medium paced and the author manages to surprise us with her mysteries as they start to unfold one by one.

The faery realm series is the best book to live your childhood dreams of visiting the faery world.Is Molly really in the faery realm? What price will Alexis have to pay to get her back? As they embark on an adventure, Alexis finds herself in the middle of mysteries of the faery realm which could lead her to several danger, some of them being life threatening. Was she kidnapped by some fae? To find the answer to this question Alexis makes a deal with a shapeshifter to track Molly, who she believes is in the faery realm. What if your dreams about the faeries come true? How would you feel?Īlexis finds herself in the faery realm when her best friend Molly disappeared without a trace. I can't wait to pick up the sequel.Īlso, can I have Keir? Please? Sirius would do fine too. After all, what are fae without their share of darkness? Jennifer Ridge crafted the perfect combination of twisted darkness, heartfelt moments, suspense, humor and romance with 'Between Worlds', and I definitely recommend it. The book also has plenty of dark settings and twists, which I love. With most books (not all, to be fair) whenever spiders show up that's the point I close it and call it a night. Yeah, not many books manage to do that to me. Oh, when I say that I had a lot of fun reading this book, please keep in mind that I have extreme arachnophobia, to the point that I can't see pictures of spiders without freaking out, and a spider-creature character had me HOWLING with laughter. I was intrigued, I was enchanted with the settings (we don't get to see all the Courts in this book, which is great since I want to discover new things in the sequels!) and the descriptions of the Courts that Alexis visited throughout the story and the fate that inhabited them, and I was delighted with the characters. Past the first ten percent it wasn't "slow" anymore, and I couldn't put it down. The beginning is a little slow, which I found completely justified by the fact that, you know, we need to get to know the characters and the circumstances that throw them face first into various adventures. I want to have fun, and boy did I have that. This book was a five star read for me for a very simple reason: I had SO MUCH FUN reading it, and when I pick up a book that's what I want, regardless of if it makes me happy or sad or angry.
