Nissa is a short story about a fairy of the same name who is training to be a fairy godmother. In order to finish her training, she has to go to Earth and help a bullied girl named Vicky get through school. Then she meets Vicky’s brother Levi and she isn’t sure if the path she is going down is the right one for her after all.
I enjoyed reading this short fairy story. I didn’t feel an intense emotional connection with any of the characters, but it was a short story that I read in about an hour or so and really enjoyed. Nissa was such a sweet character, but that doesn’t mean that her mission was easy. Being a fairy godmother was far more difficult than she thought it would be. Earth is not an easy place to be.
I think my favorite part of the story was the comparison with the human world and fairy/magical world. I wish that Nissa had spent a bit more time in the magical world, as it seemed like a beautiful place to be. Maybe if the book had been a bit longer, there would have been a bit more time to flesh out this part of the story more. There was a bit of romance, and I really enjoyed it.
I would recommend this story to anyone looking for a new fairy fantasy novel to read.
Overall Rating: 4 out of 5 stars.
