Can she solve the mystery enveloping her newfound friends? Will she be able to choose who she belongs with before it's too late.
Opinion:
Behind Green Glass is a book that will forever keep you on your toes; there was never a moment when I wanted to put it down. Even though other YA books have used faeries in their stories, Von Hoffman has added a twist to the basics of fay lore, the Forgotten Ones. This book has definitely made it to the top of my list for fantasy novels. The story was wonderful, but it lacked an appropriate ending for a novel. It kept me hanging, wanting more which is something I personally loathe in a novel story. Other than that I can't wait to read it again.
