My apologies to Dana's everywhere, but Dana doesn't strike me as a fae name, and she is half fae. I mean, librarian, math teacher, secretary - yes. But, Fairywalker - no. Not magical enough.I have read a lot of fairy books and this one doesn't really follow the fairy rules very well. These faeries are driving around in cars for goodness sakes! that would make your average fae very sick from the metal. But, I was willing to try these new fae ways with Avalon in England and allowing tourists to visit, etc.. And, I enjoyed the story, for the most part.There were many twists and betrayals, which was fun. Kimber, Finn, and Keane are my favorite characters for sure, but I can see Ethan redeeming himself and becoming a good love interest.I'm on the sequel now. Hopefully, there will be a little more Keane in this one! My apologies to Dana's everywhere, but Dana doesn't strike me as a fae name, and she is half fae.

What do You think about Lo Specchio Delle Fate (2012)?
I really liked this book the concept of a faerie walker, the book being set in avalon, the political battle between the unseelie and seelie courts. I was caught up in the emotion of dana fighting to save her mother who has clearly taken the wrong path and her trying to connect with a father she barely knows. Then throw in the fact that she a major player in this faerie war and you got me hooked. I really would like to see dana discover more of her "magic" but i am interested enough to see where the story goes in shadowspell.

The author kept make the main character (Dana) say things I wouldn't imagine a 16 year old to say, so I kept accidentally imagining her to look dorky and older instead of a half beautiful-half normal teenager.I loved the concept and everything, and it made me continue to read the series. But Dana's thought process was kind of annoying in my opinion. :| And Ethan was a total jerk. Plus he had long hair so I kept picturing him as being unattractive. :X

I am still trying to decide what I thought of Glimmerglass.
