This is such a great read I was really impressed with it. Set in a Bavarian Forest in a town called Edenburg we follow a character called Cassie Engel. Cassie lives with her mother who is an Opera singer and her father who is a Taxidermist and her Grandmother who we learn is very ill.
I read Fledgling by Lucy Hope in two sittings as it was just a beautiful story, written with care. It reminded me of fairy tales I read as a child at primary school! Set in the Bavarian Forests, Cassie notices something fly through her bedroom window. It turns out to be a tiny cherub who she wants to care for. Cassie's family members all have their individual needs which means Cassie ends up caring for them too and dealing with issues.
Like all fairy tales, there is evil. This evil threatens Cassie's family and her best friend Raphael. But can a girl like Cassie fight evil and actually win? You will have to read this beautiful book that will take you back to your childhood of fairy tales and myths to find out. But don't worry, there is also a dash of humour thrown in by the author!
