There are authors who really shouldn’t write short stories, because they can’t develop the story or their characters enough on those few pages. And then there are those who can take a few pages and turn it into a beautiful story that leaves you with a craving for more.Olivia Hardin is one of those precious ones, who can transform a few pages into Wonderland. I fell for Lynlee and her struggle to not either strangle or kiss Beck. She tries so hard to wrap herself into that tight shell, to control her magic and her feelings that she is almost forgetting how to live. Imagine how she feels when Beck comes strolling into her life (again), threatening to remove the little self-control she has left.It comes out early that Lynlee and Beck have a history and that it ended badly, but we only get snippets of why. I’m kinda curious about the why and how. Maybe we’ll find out later?Anyway, I really liked Trolling for Trouble, and Lynlee is very likable. I like that she thinks fast, reacts the same way, and doesn’t back down for anything. There was a particular part involving a troll and some serious cleaning that made me laugh out loud :-)
