I truly enjoyed this novella.
Melody is a wonderful and descriptive story teller. Though this story is shorter, it is complete with a full beginning, middle, and end. This shows how well Melody can tell a story.
This story follows Mona into Fairy land. She enters lost, but when she meets an unlikely friend, she ends up being found in ways she never thought possible.
This story includes fairies, a witch, a queen, a dragon, and humans.
Honestly, my biggest pet peeve of this story is that it wasn't longer! A beautiful story and a beautiful world.
I highly recommend for anyone who just needs to escape the real world for a bit.
