review 1: Tamisin loves and cares for all of the creatures and fairies and is referred to as a "different" fairy for not having a selfish attitude. But when she is kidnapped to go back to Oberon's court in the land of Fey, she doesn’t believe that her dad is really the king of the fairy court. But after getting mad at her boyfriend Jak, a cat goblin, she feels happy to be back at the fairy land but is convinced that she should go back to her human home. Oberon puts nectar on Tamisin to make her think that she is really in love with a blue fairy, Daras, and to believe that Oberon is her father. Favorite lines of the story:1."Tamisin watched as a blue-green shape streaked just below the breaking waves. When the mermaid reached the shallows, a tongue of water rose up, carrying her ab... moreove the grating pebbles at the water's edge onto the beach itself, depositing her only feet from where Tamisin was standing. Her hair which had looked black for, a distance now looked like the deepest green. Her eyes were green as well, but a lighter shade that spoke of seaweed and kelp." (page 125)I loved this part because it really helped me imagine the mermaid’s looks and I felt like I was in Tamisin's shoes. I think this was the best part of the story due the description. A writing technique that the author creatively used was to switch the characters (narrator). I thought it was a good idea to have the story in two points of views from two different people. An improvement that the author could of made that I think would help the novel would be to end the story in a clearer way. The author ended the story with a LOT of questions that didn't get answered. I really wished the author explained who was trying to get rid of her and if she ever went home. This book is very similar to the book Tinker Bell, because of the concept of the fairies. In both books the fairies are very stubborn and selfish. They also both have different lands and many varieties of fairy personalities. I highly recommend this book to any fantasy lovers who love a fast read. I do believe the story is well written and is an excellent example of a fantasy book.
review 2: Tamisin was shrunken ,kidnapped, and had the worst week of her life. Well second worst. Titiana's army was going after her, her boyfriend, Jak the cat goblin, was traveling across the Land of Fey to find her, and her father was apparently alive. Was her father dead of was she a full-blooded fairy? What were the strange feelings towards the blue boy? Why was everybody trying to kill her? Read to find out. Fairy Lies is like Shakespeare's Midsummer Night's Dream. He wrote the story of Titiana and oberon having a fight. He used his magic to make herfall in love with a human disguised as a donkey goblin. Fairy Lies has Titiana and Tamsin, who were related. Tamsin was the daughter of the donkey goblin and Titiana. Oberon used his magic to make Tamisin think that he is her father. If I was to recommend this book to a specific audience, I would recommend it to 9-13 year olds who like fairytales. I would recommend it because many people like it since it isn't real. I think that we like it because the story brings you in and most of the time it's fast. This book was about 230 pages long. less
