I have mixed feelings about this book. Most aspects of it were either on the love it side or the did not like that at all side.
What I loved:
I loved, absolutely loved, the world created in this book. The fairy godmother realm and concept of how they operate was so original and fantastic. It was so great to learn more about it, and I think the author did a wonderful job of displaying the little facts about the world in a very subtle and interesting way. I think the world in this book was my absolute favorite part of this book.
The plot in this book flowed smoothly, though it was a longer length of plot, especially for one that is already going to be a series. But still, the transitions were well done and logical for the most part.
Things I did not like:
As far as personality goes, I did not like Agent Thunder's. I thought at the beginning, her sarcastic attitude was great and funny, but she gets extremely cruel in parts for no real reason. I don't mean in parts with the leprechaun, but in more "normal" situations when she was just plain mean, I kind of thought someone needed to just slap her and teach her common courtesy.
I feel like the sexuality in this book was way over done. Nearly every encounter with a male, it's either talking about how "sexy" Agent Thunder is or how "sexy" the male is. I had to skip over this after a while because it just kept coming, and it seemed very repetitive. I know the main characters are supposed to be older teenagers (17 and up), but it really pushes the boundaries for the young adult novel. It's not that there are erotica scenes necessarily, but the sexual situations are very extreme in the dialogue and descriptions and sensuality of it. I would not recommend it for under 16. If this is intended for more new adult/adult, then it's not pushing the boundary, but it's still emphasized way too much. I get they are attractive and are attracted to each other.
Minor things I didn't like, but still feel the need to point out are the use of "fairy dust" and "bloody". I thought it was cute at first when they kept saying it, but one of those words started being said almost, if not always, on every page.
Overall, I just have mixed feelings. If the world and plot in this book weren't so good, then I wouldn't like this book. However, they truly were exceptional, and I would really consider reading the sequel just to get more of that. However, the issues I didn't like, I really didn't like. So, I think I will settle for 3 stars on this.
