Title: Illusions
Author: Aprilynne Pike

I just had to point this out first: This is the third book of the Wings Series. Second: If you read "Illusions" right away, you're not going to understand anything that happens in the book, UNLESS you read the first two books. Third: This book is AMAZING! Okay, now, this book is about a girl named Laurel Sewell who is a scion (a scion is a faerie sent to live in the human world). In this book, Laurel has been with her boyfriend David Lawson for two years. This year is senior year. And throughout these years, Tamani has been in love with Laurel since before Laurel was sent to the human world. Tamani is a sentry from Avalon, who was sent to watch Laurel grow up without problems, that is until the events in the first book with the trolls. Continuing on with Illusions, in this book Laurel finds out that she has another enemy other than trolls. Laurels love life is slipping from the grasps of her hands from the constant fights between Tam (Tamani) and David.

Laurel would get intense headaches that she's never experienced before, and also is still trying her best to improve her potion making. And Klea (from the second book "Spells"), asks Laurel to befriend a girl named Yuki, who is surprisingly a wild faerie. Then there's the problems occurring, such as Ryan losing his memory mysteriously. Ryan is Chelsea's boyfriend, and Chelsea is Laurels best friend. There complications with Yuki is rough, considering Laurel put Tam up to befriend Yuki, and now Laurel gets jealous even though she's dating David.... for the meantime *wink wink*. Then comes a secret hideout that many trolls have been disappearing to. And the fact that Klea is still not trusted by Tam and Laurel. When I was reading this book , I could never stop, because i loved it so much. I finished this book in one day because i couldn't stop reading! If you love books about faeries, and fantasy books, this book is for you. I want to spoil the ending so bad! But i just gotta say this, I NEED TO READ THE FOURTH BOOK! That's how good it is. Have fun if you're reading the book. *Smiley face*
