Wicked Lovely by Melissa Marr




Aislinn, or Ash, has the Sight. She can see faeries, something that no one, including the faeries, can know about. And these aren't the nice fairies your told bedtime stories about. These are fey, faeries straight from Grimm. They aren't tiny little things, they're human sized, though of course humans never see them, and the ones Ash knows are always doing something mean-spirited or evil. If the fey knew she had the Sight, Ash would be in danger. She's an orphan who lives with her overprotective grandmother, and wants something more with her best friend, Seth. But two faeries are stalking Ash, and one is the Summer King, who is determined to win her over by pretending to be human. Who will Ash fall in love with, and why does the Summer King think that she's his queen?

I loved this book, and found some similarities to Tithe when it came to the fey courts, though both are borrowed from old myths and faery tales. If you like books where the mythical world is ignored or unknown to this world by all but a precious few, with romance and intrigue added to the plot, your sure to like this fantasy novel.
