She then meets David, a boy who seems set on befriending Laurel, and eats outside with him during lunch hour. David then introduces her to his friends, and Laurel begins to ease into the drastic changes inflicted on her life. But her troubles don't stop right there.
One day, Laurel wakes up to find a zit the size of a quarter on her back. She disregards it until it grows into the size of a softball. Only then does she start to think of possibilities, such as spinal cancer. Laurel fights with herself on whether she should tell her parents or not, and decides to wait until a certain date to tell them, in hopes that the large lump would disappear.
The date approaches, and Laurel finds that the possibly cancerous lump has disappeared - only to be replaced by a pair of sweet smelling flowers that reminisce wings.
From there, Laurel finds out what she truly is . . . not human, but a fairy.

I absolutely adore this book! Everything about it is just so enchanting and lovely. I absolutely loved the characters involved, especially David. There is also a hint of romance in the form a love triangle, and who doesn't like that?
The only thing I disliked about this tale is the small amount of cliches involved. You know, girl goes to new school and meets boy and the supernatural/fantasy factor as well. But then again, just about every book has some cliches!
Five stars!
