WARNING

If you don’t like pixies, don’t read this diary.

If you don’t like loud-mouthed pixies who are really cool but sometimes get told they’re immature (for no reason), then definitely stop reading.

Oh, and if you’re His Awfulness The Elf Prince ‘Dare’ Darius, then you can kiss my butt. My hatred for you burns with the fire of a thousand suns. Thanks for getting me kicked out of Pixieland and exiled to attend some rando human high school on Earth. You’re the worst, even if you have a cute smile. And nice eyes. Your hair looks okay sometimes, too. But you’re still a creep and I loathe you.

And to everyone else: if you’ve read this far, then you better finish my entire diary.

My story is supernatural, whacked-out, and overall awesome.

Pixieland Diaries by Christina Bauer is a whimsical tale of what life for a faeling is. I had some high exceptions for this book, and it met all of them.

Will Calla be able to save Pixieland?

Calla

Calla is our main character that is born to human parents who live near ley lines, so she happens to be a fairy. She is a whimsical character that I loved reading from her point-of-view. There comes the whole thing of her being nice than trying to be mean as her Pixie parents want from her. It’s hard to not want to prank.

What I like about Calla is that her voice is so unique and so bright that the reader gets a clear vision of her. Another thing that I like about her is that she is funny and that it helps with individual parts.

The Story

We follow Calla on the many adventures that she has somehow gotten roped into doing. We also learn a lot about her heritage with her. Another thing that I like about this book is that we learn things with Calla, who just turns sixteen. Calla is a great character, and I can’t wait to read more in this series.

Five Stars

Pixieland Diaries by Christina Bauer is a fantastic book that I had a lovely time reading. I loved everything that was happening in the book, and it was done in a way that it didn’t make me cringe. Ms. Bauer is definitely an author that I will be watching for from now on.

I am giving this book five stars and recommending it to anyone that likes to read fantasy young adult books about fairies.

About Christina Bauer

Christina Bauer thinks that fantasy books are like bacon: they just make life better. All of which is why she writes romance novels that feature demons, dragons, wizards, witches, elves, elementals, and a bunch of random stuff that she brainstorms while riding the Boston T. Oh, and she includes lots of humor and kick-ass chicks, too.

Christina graduated from Syracuse University’s Newhouse School with BA’s in English along with Television, Radio, and Film Production. She lives in Newton, MA with her husband, son, and semi-insane golden retriever, Ruby.
