How will she react to Bella? Will her secret be exposed in the process? It's one thing to call me names or even talk about my friends, but to say stuff about my dad is just wrong! I really can't stand these girls.

I wish I knew who BellaHater is so I could join forces with her and make Bella's life more miserable than I already have. As I'm sitting there fuming, an IM message box pops up. The author really got that sense of revenge and feelings across to the reader which made it really easy to understand the plot of the story.

The characters feelings were portrayed perfectly and I enjoyed reading the book a lot. If you have a soft spot for books with a ton of drama, romance and revenge than this book is perfect for you and you should start reading it right away.

Zephyr thought he didn't care that much about her and I was thinking that she got stood up or something but noooooo, they still like each other.

Oh well, it's cute that way.

I really like this book because Zephyr is new to the "erdler" human world and knows nothing about BlackBerries to Googling so she kinda makes a dork outta herself but it was funny. D In the end it seems like there could be a possible sequel and if there is one I would so read it! Ok never mind, I had to edit this because right after I pressed "save review", the sequel popped up: Aug 03, Claudia rated it really liked it. Okay, it's a silly teen fantasy, disgustingly fluffy in parts.

But here's the thing. It's the "fish out of water" theme that does it for me. The main character is a teen elf who lives in our world in a secluded elf community in the woods, but she and her family go to Brooklyn, NY to live so that she can go to some performing arts school.

There's a mean girl, romance, and at one point she accidentally outs her gay friend, causing friendship angst! And the awesome Okay, it's a silly teen fantasy, disgustingly fluffy in parts. And the awesome thing about her elf community is that gayness is totally accepted and part of the community, nobody cares who you love I expected this book to be completely dumb, but even the cheesy parts ended up being charming for me.

Me, My Elf & I

So I think there are sequels or other books in the series, so yay, a pleasant surprise! Mar 08, Ash R. This book is about a girl who just moved to New York. In her new school everyone thinks of her as a beautiful girl.

See a Problem?

But others are just jealous of her and what she brought to this school. This makes the school bully Bella make fun of her, and back-stab her! I can make a text to self connection to this because when I was in elementary school the kids use to make fun of me. So I can understand and relate to how she feels. We both felt hurt, and sad, also f This book is about a girl who just moved to New York. We both felt hurt, and sad, also felt like we had no body on our side. I would give this book a 4 because it was a good book that many people especially teens in the modern day can relate too.

Apr 21, Elizabeth rated it liked it Shelves: I didn't enjoy this as much as I thought I would, but it was a cute story. Zephyr is an elf who starts at an erdler, or human, high school. She desperately wants to fit in, but doesn't always understand the lingo that the other students use. She quickly makes friends and starts to get involved, including signing up for a tv commercial audition. But, she makes an enemy of the most popular girl at the school, Bella, and drama starts ensuing, including a new love interest.

I got a little frustrated I didn't enjoy this as much as I thought I would, but it was a cute story. I got a little frustrated with Zephyr and her antics, but then I realized how old she was. It was a cute high-school, romance, story with a twist of fantasy. I did like how it all turned out, so I was happy in the end!

May 02, B. So, this is the first one of the series. I'm reading the next one now, but it's weird I was going to read the second one first I'm glad I figured out there was a first one She turned into such brat. She should have stayed her nice elf-self. And why would she even waste her time with a stupid boy like Timber? My only guess is that he was one of the "Dark Elves" but then Zephyr will make him good again, or something.

All in all, I didn't really like the book. Maybe the next one will be better, though Jan 27, Suzanne Schack added it. I loved the complete and utter ignorance of the character and how she adapts-I do mean that lovingly, I promise! I had started the book, put it down, considered returning it, and then picked it up again. Glad I did-just finished the second book and can't wait for the third! There's a lot of history, a lot of things for the group to figure out and then there's Bella. No, I'm not talking about that Bella!

This Bella would give mean girls a run for their money-and what will she do next, now th I loved the complete and utter ignorance of the character and how she adapts-I do mean that lovingly, I promise! This Bella would give mean girls a run for their money-and what will she do next, now that she's losing the fight with high school drama? Very fluffy, but parts of it appealed to me, even if the elves were no more than blond people from Michigan!?

It had a good message that was kind of sloppily executed. I was hoping she'd heal the heart of the mean girl with kindness, but no. Falls shy of that. However I liked the message of being yourself, kindness, honesty, and family in its many forms - yay! So that was nostalgic and fun.

Mar 25, Elaine Warner rated it really liked it. Cute, fun to read. Zephyr Addler moves to New York City with her family while her father works on his music career. Sounds like an every day occurrence, but the Addler family is from a small community in Wisconsin made up of elves. Elves are nice people who live a simple life, but when Zephyr moves to New York she finds that real people, or erdlers, are not so nice and don't always say what they mean. Feb 24, Alicia rated it really liked it. Not a bad story line, and it made me laugh a few times. One thing that bugged me though was that she had elf ears on the cover, but there was never a mention of them in the book.

And when she did get her hair all braided and pretty by some 'erdler', her ears were never mentioned. Plus, her secret was never outed even when the got the guy, not like the book needed anymore drama, but I mean at least tell the boy your secret o. Other than those points, not a bad book: Mar 24, Wisty rated it liked it.

Although this book sometimes dragged on and the writing was occasionally childish, it was ultimately a fun read that had me laughing out loud a few times. However, I think I'll skip the sequel. Dec 28, Mina Khan rated it really liked it.
