Wink Poppy Midnight by April Genevieve Tucholke

Wink Poppy MidnightI first saw this book on an instagram account I follow and was really excited to read it.  My friend read it next and didn’t like it but of course I had to read it still, I mean, look at the cover!  I know you’re not supposed to judge a book by its cover, but this was a cover read for me.  I give this a 4 out of 5.  It keeps you on your toes, keeping track of who is who, who did what, and why.  It does get weird and kind of confusing at the end, which is why it’s not 5 out of 5.  Now for some info on the book!

A hero.  A villain.  A liar.  Who’s who?   A modern day fairy tale with monsters hiding in pretty things and heroes that don’t know they’re heroes.  But who can tell who is a hero and who is a villain?  No one in this book.  

Wink is just a farm girl who doesn’t care what people think of her.  Admirable, right?  Midnight is a boy realizing that the girl he loves is actually a spoiled rich girl using him to get to the guy she really loves.  And Poppy is a cruel high schooler who thinks she is better than everyone else and sometimes has to get away from all the “dumb people”.  When reading Wink Poppy Midnight get ready for otherworldly beings, seances, fairy tales, treasure maps, betrayal, and love.  Get ready to be really confused and learn that not everyone is who you think they are.  People change, they can go from hero to villain and back again.  They can be a liar just trying to figure out who they are.  And don’t forget to watch out for ghosts!
