Description

A shockingly original and magical novel that tells you to be careful what you wish for, because fairy tales come true whether they should or not The tiny figure making its way to the book shop in Manhattan s West Village every day looks just like another sweet little old lady. But Lilian has a secret: one that s haunted her for centuries, one she can share with no one living today. Condemned to roam the earth until she can right the wrongs she did so long ago, this is the story of one fairy godmother who you wouldn t have wanted to take you to the ball.

Reviews
