Summary: Imagination Collides With Reality
Review: This was all in all a fantasy book but it felt so real. The writing was unique and the structure of the story, amazing. I enjoyed this book a lot and it really got me thinking. To the point and interesting, I definitely recommend it.

Summary: Delish!
Review: Francesca Lia Block's writing makes you fall in love with the characters, and, because it is written in third person, understand the way each is feeling. She attacks so many issues that are important to today's teenagers, while the characters grow and learn not to live in the past. I reccommend this book for every teenage girl who ever wished she was a fairy, or dreamed of meeting one.

Summary: Refreshing, light, glittery as a million Mabs!
Review: Even at 20 I am still able to enjoy one of the staples of my teenage years. Francesca Lia Block never fails to amaze. The prose is minimalist, yet very descript. Like the Hanged Man, my favorite of the Block books, I Was A Teenage Fairy introduces new characters with real problems, and manages to evoke a sense of magic without glamorizing the decadence of the scene where the action takes place. The Weezie Bat books are great as well, but I had been hoping Ms. Block would take a break and try a new tack. I'm looking forward to more from Mab and Barbie. Always a treat.

Summary: A delightful fantasy biscuit.
Review: A light fairy tale with a serious undertone. I'm 29 and I still go for mature YA fantasy like this from time to time (Annette Curtis Clause is another.) Kudos for not beating us over the head with the child abuse issue. I look forward to reading more about Barbie, with or without Mab, if anything more should be written.

Summary: The best book for fantasy lovers!
Review: If you would like to read this book you better have alot of time on youre hands because once you start you can't put it down I think this book is addicting! I reccomend this book for 13-18 readers it has a bit of swearing but it makes it better and more interesting it is a bout a fairy who finds a friend the friends name is Barbie, Barbie is the main character. Barbies mother, Ms. Marks puts Barbie under tons of pressure to be a model and become famous But Barbie doesn't like all of the photo shoots The book makes you feel like you are Barbies best friend Barbie grows and she picks up a Boyfriend along the way! I think this is a super book aND IF YOURE A TEENAGER THIS IS A ROMANTIC FANTASY!

Summary: Fantastic Book
Review: This book was the best book I've ever read. It gripped to read it (at age 13) in less then 2 days, and I don't doubt that I'll be reading it again! The mystery that slowly reveals catches your emotions and brings out your anger and love towards the characters in this book. A definite read for ages 13+.
