REVIEW
Wings offers a bit of a twist to A Midsummer Night’s Dream. While there are fairies, magic, and a spooky forest in both, the plots are quite different.
Tamisin was always a little different from the other girls at school. Sometimes her face would sparkle, she would dance when the moon was full, and she could see invisible goblins. A little different became A LOT different though when Tamisin sprouted wings. She was startled by this, but she did not go berserk like I would have expected.
Tamisin’s quest to understand why she had wings led her to an enchanted land of fairies and goblins. She didn’t go there willingly though � she was kidnapped. While there, she met her fairy mother and fell in love with Jak, who was half goblin. It was all very confusing in the goblin world and I was glad that Jak offered some explanations.
I would have liked the story better if it had all taken place in the fairy/goblin world. It was hard to picture the characters going back and forth between worlds without being found out in the human world. As well, I still had questions at the end of the story and wondered what eventually became of Tamisin and Jak.
A good book, but not as fantastic as E.D. Baker’s other titles.
