Not Your Average Fairy Tale by Chantele Sedgwick

Not Your Average Fairy Tale is a not-to-be-missed fairy tale you won't be able to put down. Here to celebrate its one year anniversary, I hope you will take advantage of its celebratory week!

Ash Summerland has it all–good looks, popularity, and the best grades at The Academy of Magical Beings. Ready to complete his last assignment in order to graduate, Ash is confident he will get the apprenticeship he wants. 

When  he opens the letter from the Council, he is shocked to discover he has been  assigned to apprentice Lady Shenelle, Keeper of Happy Endings. A.K.A. the head  fairy godmother. Ash is forced to grant three wishes to a troubled human girl  named Kendall, and ultimately give her a "happy ever after".

But Kendall  turns out to be more than he bargained for. Still
grieving over her father's  death, Kendall doesn't want anything to do with him. And worst of all, she  doesn't believe in happy endings.

This  review is from: Not  Your Average Fairy Tale (Paperback) 

First line:

"I stared  at the gold-flecked envelope in my hand,  trying to ignore my pounding  heart."

Good, clean read. Any teenager girl would enjoy this story. This  is the first book in a possible
trilogy.

Ash has magic running through  his blood, though he's not sure
what kind. Elf? Fairy? One of his parents is  human, the other unknown. So Ash
goes to a school for magical beings and this is  the year he is chosen to
apprentice. He really wants to work with Sandman  because then he can manipulate
dreams and time. But what does he get instead??  Fairy Godmother, er, Boy? Ash
is not happy with this but if he can fulfill his  assignment, he might still
have a shot with Sandman.

What Ash doesn't  count on is Kendall (hello?
boys name for a girl?). She intrigues Ash and soon  he finds he's falling for
her.

The title is accurate. This is not your  average fairytale. It's not
a retelling either. It's a different look into a  different, magical realm. Ms.
Sedgwick did a good job keeping me intrigued and  reading. The chapters
alternate between Ash and Kendall and are good insights  into each
character.

Teen girls AND boys will like this  book!

Rated:
PG
