Fairy, Texas. A small town like any other.
Laney Harris didn't want to live there. When her mother remarried and moved
them to a town where a date meant hanging out at the Sonic, Laney figured that
"boring" would have a whole new meaning. A new stepsister who
despised her and a high school where she was the only topic of gossip were bad
enough. But when she met the school counselor (and his terminal bad breath),
she grew suspicious. Especially since he had wings that only she could see. And
then there were Josh and Mason, two gorgeous glimmering-eyed classmates whose
interest in her might not be for the reasons she hoped. Not to mention that
dead guy she nearly tripped over in gym class. She was right. Boring took on an entirely new dimension in Fairy, Texas.
Amble in Your Dream World…
RATING 
Again
an incredible tale, inscribed in a flawless flair which kept me guessing and pondering
till the very end, what’s going to happen next!
After a laden week, I need a Sunday with a remarkable book I could live-in. It’s
a story of a teenager Laney Harris
whose life is turned repugnant after her mother’s second marriage (and a
wonderful gift?? Of an evil step-sister). But things starts getting inexplicable
when she starts seeing “winged” people and getting outlandish attention.
The
wonderful story takes you to a different world where your creepiest fantasies
are factual.
Thank
you Ms. Collins
for this stupefying novella! Fervently waiting for the sequel and knowing more
about Laney Harris.
Excerpt :
“Okay,
girls,” Coach Spencer yelled above the chatter around me. “We’re going to get
warmed up for this year with a little run around the outer track.” She gestured
toward a field off to the right of the building. I could see a dirt track
wending its way along the edge, disappearing into a copse of stubby trees and
scrub brush at the far end. “Four laps,” Spencer added. A general groan went
up, and I was glad that the discussion at lunch had distracted me from eating
too much. Late August in Texas is hot.
“Well?”
the coach said. “Get going!”
We
started off at a trot toward the field, many of the girls around me still
complaining. For a moment, I considered hanging back with the crowd, but Andrew
had told me that Spencer coached the girls’ track team. I wanted to impress
her. So I stretched my legs out as I hit the track and settled in to a long
stride, my breathing still easy.
The
afternoon sun beat down on my head. I watched the small grove grow closer,
anxious for some shade. By the time I hit the bend in the track that led into
the thicket, I was yards ahead of the rest of the runners—so when I rounded the
curve and tripped over the body, I was all alone.
It
didn’t take long for everyone else to catch up, but it seemed like an eternity
as I scrambled back, crab-like. It took a moment for my brain to translate the
messages my eyes were sending it—the images coalesced slowly, like one of those
magic pictures with the 3D images inside.
He
had been stretched out spread-eagle across the trail, head and feet
half-concealed in the brush on either side. Blood pooled around him, sticky and
half-dried at the edges. His shirt had been ripped open and a slash opened him
from his throat to his stomach.
As
the other girls rounded the bend, I realized that the high, keening noise in
the background was the sound of my own screaming. As soon as I realized it, I
stopped, but several of my classmates picked up where I left off.
My
hands and knees were coated with blood where I had landed; my skin was tacky
with it. I crawled over to the nearest bush and vomited.
Coach
Spencer shoved her way through the girls and stuttered to a stop, her hand to
her mouth. “Oh, God,” she said. “It’s Cody Murphy.”
