Bliss sweet as summer & anguish sharp as ice shards.
This book completely healed me & absolutely wrecked me at the same time.💕✨The writing was so poetic, whimsical, & soul-touching. Allison weaves magic with words.❄️The lore was impeccable. It honoured the Pixie Hollow we know & love while building on that world & deepening it beautifully.🌳Allison’s vocabulary is incredible. I loved how many times I was looking up luscious new words.🍃The fairy life details were utterly enchanting! From the delicious foods to the flowers that were crafted into striking fashions, every detail of life was designed for pixies & it was so magical.🧚🏻♀️No spoilers, but the meaning behind the monsters & how they can be defeated made me weep with hope.🥹The depth to this story & to these precious characters was marvelous. I feel so connected to Clarion—her insecurities as well as her strengths were poignant & deeply relatable.🤍And lastly, the romance. Oh, the tender, precious, beauteous depth of it. I would never call this romance “sizzling” for it burned—bright & true as a falling star.💫Clarion & Milori deserve every happiness & now I need to watch The Secret of the Wings to fill the gaping wound in my heart with its hope of happily ever after.🦋This book was astounding. It was perfection. It not only met, but far exceeded my expectations & hopes. This story is fully welcome into the official canon & lore of the Pixie Hollow I hold so very, very dear.💕So, in the words of Queen Clarion herself, “Born of laughter, clothed in cheer, happiness has brought you here. Welcome to Pixie Hollow!”✨

Beautiful and Nostalgic
Jumping back into Pixie Hollow felt wonderfully nostalgic. This story captured the exact essence and way of life from a beloved world. I felt like I was there every single time I had my book open. The slow pace to it was absolutely necessary and comforting for the type of spellbound events that occurred. I could not have dreamed up a better way for us long time fans to experience the relationship that unfolded between Clarion And Milori. I don’t know who to thank at Disney, but you could have not picked a better hand to write and weave the fabric of elements that pull previous Pixie Hollow history and a current point of view that Allison has interlaced.After I read this I bought it for my cousin to make a book bouquet to give to her at her high school graduation.

Good book, OK ending.
I was so excited to read this book. I've always loved Tinkerbell movies and Secret of the Wings is one of my favorites. The book is written just like the films, which I enjoyed for the nostalgia factor. The romance is sweet and tugs at the heart. I thought the story could have been a bit longer with more information on the villains, but the resolution worked out nicely. I took a star for the ending, it just didn't feel satisfying.

Beautiful fairy story
If you liked Disney's Secret of the Wings and wanted to know why Milori's wing is broken, this story explains it. Hauntingly beautiful ending. Loved seeing more of Queen Clarion and how she became queen. This avid fairy fan adored this story!

My childhood Roman Empire
My younger sister and I were obsessed with Pixie Hollow movies as kids—and I especially was captured by the star-crossed love story between Milori and Clarion, however briefly it was explored. So when I found out there was a book all about their story, I bought it IMMEDIATELY.I’m happy to say this book was an absolute delight. I devoured it in two days and my only complaint is that I can’t have an entire series about Clarion and Milori 🤣 I could have read 1,000 more pages of this. It’s the first time in a long time reading felt the way it used to feel when I was a kid: like I lost myself entirely in a different world and couldn’t put the book down until it was done. It’s utterly enchanting, beautifully written, and surprisingly heart-wrenching. You won’t be disappointed!

Young Adult Fantasy Romance
This is a Young Adult Fantasy Romance. I normally do not read Young Adult or Fantasy. I picked this book up because my teenage daughter really wanted me to read it. It took me a super long time for me to get into this book, but I am not sure if it is because this book is not my type of book. I found the pacing to be super slow moving for the first half of the book which did not help me to get into the book. I found the last half of the book to be good. The ending of the book is heart breaking. I also wanted to yell at Clarion to stand up for herself.My daughter who reads Young adult fantasy all the time loves this book so much, so if this is your jam then you should love this book.

Brings back childhood memories
I was a huge Tinkerbell fan when I was a child so when I heard there was a book about Queen Clarion and Lord Milorj, I had to get the book!This was a young adult romance and I loved it! There was danger, adventure, love, and friendship encompassed in this story. It broke my heart to see Queen Clarion make a difficult decision on forbidding to go to the Winter Woods. Clarion really developed through the story and became the queen she was fated to

beautiful
The authors flowery language was breathtaking. I could see every detail vividly. I felt the sudden news of this book sort of random since it has been 13 years since the movie had released. Nevertheless, I was instantly entranced by the characters and the tragic love story of the Queen and the Lord of Winter. I definitely recommend reading it. I’m going to rewatch to movie to remind myself that they did meet again.
