Wings by E. D. Baker

SYNOPSIS:  Tamisin isn't like other girls her age.  She has pointed ears, her freckles sparkle, and she sprouts wings.  Things become even more complicated as she tries to find out who she is . . . or WHAT she is.

AUNT SHARON'S TAKE:  I found the writing in this book to be a little choppy and unpolished, which made it hard for me to get through.  On the other hand, I think the book is intended for younger readers, so they may have more patience with the storytelling style than I would.  As far as content goes, this book had some violence, which I thought was a little gruesome.  It also had some frightening characters that might scare off younger readers.

RATING:  PG or PG13 for Violence and Frightening Sequences

AUDIENCE:  Teens

STARS:  1

BOOKS LIKE THIS:  Small Persons With Wings, Artemis Fowl
