Review: The Changelings (War of the Fae #1) by Elle Casey

Summary-
Jayne Sparks, a potty-mouthed, rebellious seventeen-year-old and her best friend, shy and bookish Tony Green, have a pretty typical high school existence, until several seemingly unrelated incidents converge, causing a cascade of events that change their lives forever. Jayne and Tony, together with a group of runaway teens, are hijacked and sent into a forest, where nothing and no one are as they seem. Who will emerge triumphant? And what will they be when they do?
Amazon 5-star review: "...if you like anything to do with fae fantasy, read this book..."

Review:
This is an awesome beginning book that is the making of an awesome series. The main character Jayne is a cursor but its done in a tasteful way. It is part of who she is and I actually like this part of the character. The main character is also strong willed and quick witted which add up to a great read.
The storyline is well thought out and well executed and full of action and adventure. This is a great read and I would recommend it anyone looking for a satisfying read!

  2. I liked the main character of this book from the very beginning. She has a fierce, strong personality, but a good heart. I couldn't help but be on her side. She also swears- a lot- but I found that amusing rather than annoying. Tony is an awesome character, too. The friendship between them is genuine, touching and funny. I love that they can have such a strong relationship without it being in any way romantic.

    The pacing and suspense in this book are perfect. There's enough description to immerse the reader in the adventure, but not enough to get bogged down in. The minor characters they encountered were fascinating and really well drawn. Unfortunately, it's impossible to go into detail without spoiling the plot, and this is a plot that's too good to spoil!
