I found Alora to be a breath of fresh air in the YA fantasy genre!  I became completely intrigued with this book from the small section Dearen has posted on her website.  When I got my hands on the book I could not wait to begin reading it!  I was not disappointed!  I loved Alora and everything about her.  She was sweet, kind, unsure of herself and beautiful without being aware of it.  Kaevin, Beth, Wesley, Uncle Charles...every character in this book is amazing!  I don't think I have ever said that about any book before.  I loved how the situations felt real even though we were dealing with fantasy and other realms.  There is one point in the book where I think Beth says something like "I have seen things that I don't understand but I have accepted it, so you guys need to accept this!"  This was one of my favorite parts of the entire book because it resonated with me.  If a teenage girl were in this type of situation she would probably say something like that and then at another point she said, "Get over it!'.  It was hilarious while being so realistic to teenagers and their personalities.  I am seriously so sad the next book isn't in my hands to read yet, I really want to know what happens next.  A YA fantasy with characters you will adore and cheer for, Alora is a book I would recommend to any of my friends!I received a copy of this book for free and this is my honest review.  All thoughts and opinions are my own.
