Review Detail

This book was even better than the first, going so far as the cover art. Filled from start to finish with, mischief, food, fun, words, magic, and love, it starts out with Bertie and Co. on a quest to save Nate from the clutches of the evil sea goddess, Sedna. But things aren't as easy as Bertie first thinks, they are low on food(much to the faeries dismay) and everything she does seems to take them two steps back. With her growing confusion on how she feels for both Nate and Ariel, and finding her father, Bertie feels overwhelmed as she continues forward in her quest. She works to piece together her past until she finally reaches the portal to Sedna's lair, where she must fight to save Nate, Ariel, and finally herself.

I really feel for Bertie in this book, even more so than in the last, I was having as much, or maybe even more, trouble deciding for myself who she should end up with, both Ariel and Nate love her so much, and both are unique and wonderful in their own ways.

The faeries as usual are hilarious, especially when while putting on a production of "The Capulets and the Montagues are Dead." Peaseblossom suffers from schizophrenia, and when Moth, Mustardseed, and Cobweb are "canniballistic" and start eating Henry, Peaseblossom's marzipan boyfriend. Their lines and quips never fail to crack me up laughing.
