13 Treasures

13 Treasures - Michelle Harrison Middle School book club selection!

This presents the mean side of the faerie world, which I nearly always enjoy. I'll be interested to see how the narration plays to the middle schoolers. The story itself is fast paced but the narration is very British and definitely reads like it comes from a sheltered girl who loves to use the vocabulary and mannerisms of a middle aged person. And the 13 treasures aren't that important to the story, so why are they the title?
