Fairy Dust and the Quest for the Egg by Gail Carson Levine

5.0

Oh, to be a 5 inch tall fairy living in a tree, wearing flower petal dresses and acorn hats, eating berries as big as my head, using a leaf as an umbrella... That’s the life

This was one of my favorite books as a kid (the whole Pixie Hollow series, actually, but this one really kicked it off.) I absolutely fell in love with the world and would spend hours dreaming about the minutiae of my life as a fairy and coming up with ideas about how the Home Tree worked (seriously, I planned out the plumbing . )

But anyways, this book had a huge impact on me and that’s why I love it so much. Also I actually really like the writing style? The glimpses into other fairies thoughts (like Tink for example) are really cool and can be quite funny. Also the fairies aren’t all flowers and magic, they can be quite sarcastic and mean to each other and I always loved that.
