My Fair Godmother by Janette Rallison....


**** stars -- This one is more than "fair"......

I really enjoyed this lighthearted tale of a mixed up high school girl who isn't quite sure of what she wants in a boyfriend although she's dating the really hot senior, Hunter. Savannah's also not quite sure of who she is and what is important in life. When her smart sister Jane steals her boyfriend, and she's really down in the dumps, an inept "fair" godmother named Chrissy appears to grant Savannah three wishes. Unfortunately, Chrissy hasn't done so well in fairy school and is using this as an extra credit project. Mistakenly sent back to the Middle Ages, Savannah endures trials and tribulations, first becoming Cinderella and then Snow White, as she attempts to find her prince -- and a prom date.

This book is funny and sweet. I think teen girls will really enjoy it. There are spells galore, dragons and royalty, balls and feasts. Just as in a fairy tale and as predictable, there's no sex, alcohol or drug use, etc. (other than potions and poisons) and has a great ending!

To me, this book sounds like it has too much going on, but it could still be a good book.
