More great reads: the best books for 13 year olds
"Magic and love, sacrifice and revenge — this fairy godmother origin story revamps Cinderella and witch mythology in a richly conjured world."
The first myth-and-magic laden novel in the Fairy Godmother series, Danielle Paige’s Wish of the Wicked is sure to enchant and grip readers who love Kalynn Bayron’s YA fairy tale reinventions and Brigid Kemmerer’s novels. It retells Cinderella from the fairy godmother’s perspective, with a deliciously deadly twist and rich story-world that ripples with revenge and romance.
“We were Entente. For centuries we had been at the side of every queen and king in every Queendom, as advisors, confidants, leaders. We were the whispers…We were the Fates.” For centuries, Farrow and her fellow Ententes worked with the Three Fates of the Past, Present and Future to advise leaders of the Thirteen Queendoms. Equilibrium is shot when Queen Magrit burns Hecate, Fate of the Future, at the stake, and decrees that all Entente must die.
Now 16, Farrow is the only remaining Entente, and she’s set on revenge. After deciding the most potent way of doing this is through Queen Magrit’s son, Prince Mather, Farrow faces a struggle between heart and heart, revenge and love. And so a passion-and-peril-packed story unfolds through an undulating plot of complexities and conflict.
