review 1: So, this is the first one of the series. I'm reading the next one now, but it's weird I was going to read the second one first... I'm glad I figured out there was a first one... But to talk of the actual story/plot/climax, I didn't like it near the end. She turned into such brat. She should have stayed her nice elf-self. And why would she even waste her time with a stupid boy like Timber? My only guess is that he was one of the "Dark Elves" but then Zephyr will make him good again, or something. And how DUMB that she started talking like a dork when she had perfectly good grammar before when IMing. All in all, I didn't really like the book. Maybe the next one will be better, though...
review 2: Did you ever feel nervous when transferring to a new school where y
... moreou don't know anyone? Do you ever wonder about how the teachers and students are like? Do you ever find yourself wondering if you'll fit in or not? In the book Me, my elf and I by Heather Swain, Zephyr Addler is sheltering a HUGE secret. She's tall, blonde, beautiful and... an elf. She transferred to a famous New York City performing arts school from a secluded woodland community that shelters elves from the human society called Averland. She finds herself cornered in many difficult situations as well, such as a the school snob, Bella Dartangan, who is trying to ruin Zephyrs school profile and dealing with horrible rumors about her, her well-known father and her family. Fortunately, she meets Mercedes and Ari. Her first friends since she transferred into the school. They talk her into auditioning for a role against Bella (the school snob), who will do anything to get what she wants. What will Zephyr do about the rumors? How will she react to Bella? Will her secret be exposed in the process? "My blood boils. It's one thing to call me names or even talk about my friends, but to say stuff about my dad is just wrong! I really can't stand these girls. I wish I knew who BellaHater is so I could join forces with her and make Bella's life more miserable than I already have. As I'm sitting there fuming, an IM message box pops up. It's from Timber." ~Chapter 11, Page 181 Although I usually don't have an appeal for these type of genres, this was exceptionally good. The author really got that sense of revenge and feelings across to the reader which made it really easy to understand the plot of the story. The characters feelings were portrayed perfectly and I enjoyed reading the book a lot. If you have a soft spot for books with a ton of drama, romance and revenge than this book is perfect for you and you should start reading it right away. less
