How to Ditch Your Fairy; Starting a new book

Since I have recently finished the Fault in our Stars, it was time I needed a new book. I do not have much time in my day to go to the library, so I simply just borrowed a book from my sister. It is called How to Ditch Your Fairy by Justine Larbalestier. So far, I haven't started the book, but I have read the summary and what I conclude is that there is this girl named Charlie, who talks about everyone having their 'personal fairy', and how her's is a parking fairy. Now at first, this didn't make so much sense to me but i have came to a realization that each person's 'fairy' is their own special talent. And apparently, hers is having the ability to find the best parking spot.

Now my predictions for this book is that the main character, Charlie, will try to ditch her 'fairy', hence how to 'ditch' your fairy, and maybe it won't go as well as she thought it would. She seems characterized as the type of person who is always down on their luck and gets stuck with no umbrella on a rainy day, or who's car broke down on the day of an important meeting. My goal is to read ten chapters into this book or more, and hopefully I can gain a stronger sense of what this book's topic is really about.

Have you all ever had really bad luck?

Comment your experiences!

  1. I can totally relate to Charlie, because I'm always getting into mishaps. Unfortunately, they're usually my fault and I obviously don't have a fairy to bail me out. I might check in on this book. Thanks!
