Tanya is no ordinary girl. She can see fairies. But not the fairies we imagine. Evil fairies who cast spells on her, rousing her from her sleep and propelling her out of bed. At wit's end with her daughter's inexplicable behavior, Tanya's mother sends her away to live with her grandmother at Elvesden Manor, a secluded countryside mansion on the outskirts of a peculiar Essex town.
There is plenty to explore, as long as Tanya stays away from Hangman's Wood- a vast stretch of forest, full of catacombs and notorious for people losing their lives. Fifty years ago a girl vanished in the woods, a girl Tanya's grandmother will not speak of. As Tanya learns more about this girl, she finds herself dangerously close to vanishing into the fairy realm forever.
Debut author Michelle Harrison weaves an intricate mystery into a beautiful and haunting fantasy that captures a rich world of fairy lore where only the color red can offer protection.

I am in the middle of the book and I really like it, but I do have to say that my friend and I both thought the beginning was boring. But, if you keep reading, it will get WAY better... :)

I really liked the way the author wrote this book because I could feel all the emotions that the charactors were feeling. Also she made me feel like I was in the book. My favorite part was the surprise towards the end. You`ll have to read it to find out.
Fairies are cool right? So read this. It'll tell you every cool fact you need to know about them. And you'll uncover mysterious secrets, IF you READ it/
