Covers look awesome.

Unknown said...

Most of the time I do. They're whimsical and intriguing.

Maka said...

Yes, I do.
I love fairies because they look beauty and delicate but they are truly powerful, and dangerous.

miki said...

depenfds ^^ i love cute inoffensive one but i fear the cruel ones^^ because they are really hard on humans

Unknown said...

I generally do, especially if there's a twist to the general fairytale. They are classics and as such they pretty much cover some of the more basic and yet intriguing plot lines...there's some charm to reading an already known and 'obvious' story but with some uniqueness to it.

ilookfamous said...

I love stories about fairies that show the evil underbelly of magical races ;)

Maidenveil said...

YES! Being a lover of fantasy, this one is a given.

I like faeries. They are usually versatile so they can be good or bad.

I love fairies because they can be deadly

Unknown said...

It depends. If the story on faeries is captivating and interesting then yes, but if it's all cliche and cheesy then no. After all, everything is based on what we read right?

I love fairies, I just find them fascinating, one of the things I love the most is their versatility, in some books/films/stories they are portrayed as beautiful, pure and good, while in others they are ugly and evil.

Courtney said...

I do...as long as they're good fairies ;)

Preet said...

I'm a little torn. They're mischievous and often their little tricks end up putting people in a lot of trouble.

However, they're magical being with wings and have the ability to do magic.
