Nettle

by Bex Hogan

This is a fantasy novel with many of the elements of a traditional fairy tale and inspiration from A Midsummer Night’s Dream. Nettle is suddenly transported to the faery realm, with all its menace and mesmerising beauty. She is given tasks that are impossible to complete, but this is a story of hope and determination. There is also love, but the romance is sufficiently light that tweens – as well as teens – will enjoy it.
