Summary:
When sixteen-year-old Lee Capren is spirited away to Faerie, she is forced to serve capricious faeries as a prized portrait artist… and live as their prisoner.
A chance encounter with the charming Nasser grants Lee a chance for freedom—but what felt like mere days in Faerie spanned years in the human world, and Lee no longer has a home to return to.
Nasser is a Seer—a human with magical powers—and Lee is quickly plunged into his world: a sprawling city teeming with magic and mystery, where supernatural creatures walk hidden among humans. With the help of a rag-tag group of teenage Seers, Lee must master her newfound magical talent and outwit a cunning faerie determined to destroy her.

Review:
It's the first time I read a novel about faeries and fey and I was really surprised. Until now I always thought they were kind creatures, whereas here they're described as kind of evil.
In this book we follow Lee, a girl who has been kidnapped by the prince of the faeries. When she's rescued by Nasser, at first she doesn't understand what's going on. Seven years have passed, Her mom moved. Her bestfiend Kendall has a life where Lee is just a memory. Plus, the fearie who traded her for Nasser's name, needs her back.
I found this book really interesting. Lee has to learn all these new things that she didn't even believe to be possible. And we learn with her.
I felt really involved in what Lee had to go through, with her mum and Kendall. But I didn't really felt the attraction between her and Nasser. I mean, I get that it was love at first sight, but it wasn't well explained. On the other hand I really want to see Filo and Alice together. They're so cute.
I don't know yet if I'm going to read the next installment in this series or not. It wrapped up in a very satisfying way. And, yes, I want to know what happens between Filo and Alice, and how Filo manages to work at Flicker alone...but I don't find it necessary.

Who can read this book?
It has been a little difficult reading this book, because there are a lot of words related to fantastic creatures. I'm Italian so most of them I didn't know. I read it on my Kobo though, which meant that I could search what the words meant as I was reading. I think everyone with a good level of english can read this book!
