Spells

Harper, 2010. 359 pgs. Young Adult

When a deadly enemy puts both Laurel’s life and the faerie realm of Avalon in danger, Laurel must draw on all her human strength as well as her faerie skills to survive. Will she depend on David, her human boyfriend, for help? Or will she turn to Tamani, the electrifying faeries with whom her connection is undeniable?

Spells is the sequel to Wings which came out in 2009. According to Aprilynne Pike’s blog this is the 2nd book in a 4 book series. Although I enjoyed Spells it did not draw me in the same way Wings did. However, knowing that this is a middle book in a series, I look forward to an exciting conclusion to this series as the next two books are published. Spells shows the conflict Laurel feels as she tries to stay close to both David and Tamani while at the same time trying to fend of her enemies.
