Review: Calla

Calla by Christina Bauer
My rating: 4 of 5 stars

Calla and Dare are being sent on a mission.  The Blue Fairy doesn’t think it is a big deal, but if they aren’t successful, they will be dead in a week.  That is a big deal on everyone’s level!  Blue also thinks that since Calla and Dare are friends that it won’t be awkward, but this is awkward to the extreme since Calla has a huge crush on Dare.  It doesn’t help that they would like to ask Calla’s dad for permission to court and if they do any inappropriate touching without that approval, then the answer will be an absolute NO!  Will Calla and Dare be successful in their quest?  What will Calla’s dad say when asked if they can court?

Calla is the second book in the Pixieland Diaries series.  This book picks up quickly after the last book and it is still written in diary format.  Since diaries are meant to be casual in their presentation, this book reads very quickly and without a lot of drudging details.  I feel this book is meant to be an escape read and is not intended to be looked at as high literature.  Calla was fun to read and could easily be read in one sitting or over a weekend.  I can’t wait for the next book, Dare, to get released.
