“Mixes cherished fantasy classics with modern magic and moxie” – Foreword
After
battling werewolves and evil aunties, Bryar Rose is ready to enjoy her
new life. No more crazy aunties. Her curse is toast. And Bry’s new man,
Knox, is literally a dream come true. Best of all, Bry will soon attend a
regular high school. Forget those sketchy tutors! To get ready, Bry is
dedicating the rest of her summer to some serious back-to-school
shopping with her best friend, Elle. It’s a blast, except for one thing:
Mysterious strangers are following Bry across Manhattan.
All
these stalkers have oddly familiar scents and an uncanny ability to
slip into the shadows whenever Bry tries to confront them. Even worse,
their presence is making Knox act crazy with a capital C.
“Bauer’s unique voice blends magical fantasy, swooning romance, and a bucketful of teenage sass.” – Booklist
But
Bry’s having none of it. Enough of her life has already been ruined by
secrets. With Elle’s help, Bry plans to confront these strangers, find
out what they want, and send them packing. Trouble is, the truth about
their identity won’t be so easy to manage, especially when Bry finds out
how these stalkers could change her future with Knox…and not for the
better.
Perfect for readers who love young adult books,gamma
guys, contemporary fantasy, fairy tales, satire/comedy, paranormal
romance, fairies, magic users, shapeshifters, and coming of age stories.

Review:
Moonlight and Midtown by Christina Bauer is a fun but quick novella
in the Fairy Tales of the Magicorum series that draws readers back into
this magical world of mischief and adventure.
Having
battled zombies, werewolves and evil aunties, Bryar Rose is ready for
the next stage in her life which includes learning the ins and outs of
her new werewolf side and spending time with her man Knox. Oh, and best
of all, she’ll also be starting at a regular school soon. If only she
could find clothing that doesn’t shred the moment she transforms into
her wolf? Enter a fae shopping spree to find indestructible clothes and
soon Bryar and Elle find themselves caught in the middle of a fight
against some fairies and in way over their head. How will Bryar get out
of her latest mess?
Taking place between books 1 and 2,
Moonlight and Midtown is an enjoyable look into Bryar Rose’s life that
allows readers to discover how our heroine is adjusting to life now that
her werewolf nature has been released. Short and easy, Moonlight and
Midtown sees Bryar, Elle, Knox and Alec back along with two new
characters; hilariously adorable and hopeless werewolves Abe and
Hollywood, who just want to be helpful.
Definitely a must
read for fans of the series, Moonlight and Midtown is a quaint read and
is a great way to tide yourself over until the next full length novel
in the series releases.
