Saffron is awesome!

Reviewed in Australia 🇦🇺 on June 4, 2022

I am absolutely loving this series! Each of the 3 books so far in the series has had its own tone, from hilarious, to serious & then this one, which was tense & some. But still with the clever humour to be found that I love in Helen Harper’s books.

The cast of this series are brilliant. They are all well rounded characters, with strong personalities and important parts to play. I love that about these books. And they are all so entertaining in their differences.

My favorite is, without question, Pumpkin. He’s the smartest of the lot of them! And he could give lessons in attitude…

Faery godmothers can be dark

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 12, 2019

Who’d have thunk a series about faery godmothers could be one of Harper’s darker series. While there is a hopeful side plot of romance, humor from Saffron’s sidekicks Vincent and Pumpkin the dog and some aspects of the lingering plot from previous books, the continuation of other details Carrie Dover and new developments take a turn. Even the romance hits a snag. I still enjoy the realism that not every magical wish is rainbows and bunnies, with mysterious and criminal folk among Saffron’s clients. I must admit that the first half of the book was a bit of a slog for me, but it really picked up at the end and now I eagerly await book 4. Additionally, while Harper always writes characters with quick wit and light on the details to keep from slowing the story (the opposite of lord of the rings, which I appreciate), I have yet to really get a grip on Saffron; she was missing some reactions I’d expect to certain events, but I think based on the twist, there’s more to learn about her in the next installment.

Adwell is in prison but it's not the last of him.

Just when Saffron thought she had cleaned up another mess and could get back on track being the best faery Godmother, things go to hell again. Ethan is back forcing Saffron to clean up another mess she made but she is in no mood to be forced to do anything and might have overreacted slightly. She has to move in with Jasper for a few days. Additionally, she gets a really difficult client again and has an extremely difficult time figuring out what his wish is. Then there is the Director, who seems to have lost her mind and proves that she might just be the biggest problem yet. Can Saffron figure all this out and appease everyone while keeping her job in the end. Just what is so terrible in Jasper's past and how does it figure in? Very well written and engrossing but many twists and turns that you don't necessarily foresee. I love the series and intend to finish it but, I'm not really excited about the final plot twists.

A bit tragic

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on February 16, 2022

I've think this just is the 75% of a a long novel. It's sad, tense and grim. There's very little winning. It's good. And interesting but sad. There's no justice yet.

As You Wish by Helen Harper a five-star read you can wish upon

As You Wish by Helen Harper a five-star read you can wish upon. This is number three in the How to be the best damn faery godmother in the world (or die trying) series and they read best in order as they follow on and tell the whole story. This one may be my favourite of the series as not only do we read about the best damn faery godmother in the world, but we also get to hear more about her sidekicks as well. This is so much fun, and the drama in this one was sublime, the intrigue and plot twists just kept me hooked. It was like watching the story unfold before your eyes, and you don’t see it coming. I must say Devils advocate you still have my heart, no matter what you do.

My kind of faery!

Frizzy haired, slightly dumpy and perfectly determined! Book 3 advances her relationships, even while things take a decided turn to the left.... sadly enough. The truth will come out!!

First person, single POV, Cliffhanger.
PNR/ fantasy.
Rating = pg-13
Character age range = adult
Romantic dynamic = M/F

Pros:
- Dramatic, yet still fun!!
- Devil’s advocate.... adore him.
- Vincent... That human is handy.
- The machinations of the office is horrific.

Cons:
- Plot advanced well, but it feels like something is missing.

Unbiased and keepin' it 100

What an ending

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on January 11, 2020

I was a bit miffed about the ending of this story, because I was already caught up in how much this series reminded me of the Lazy Witch meets Highland Magic with all the behind the scenes political machinations and the need to maintain the status quo while recognizing everyone’s potential for greatness, I just didn’t expect Saffron to go down this path.
After careful thought, this opens up loads of possibilities for how the final book may play out.
I did enjoy this thoroughly and found myself laughing aloud at the best damn sidekicks antics

Aaaargh! Waiting for the last book is torture

Reviewed in the United States 🇺🇸 on December 14, 2019

I thought this was the last book in the series and I am sooo upset that 1) Jasper and Saffron haven’t had their moment yet and 2) that nasty director still needs her comeuppance!!! 😡

On the other hand, it means we get another fakery godmother book, so that is consolation.

This is not my favorite series by this author, but it is still fun, with intrigue and romance and is better written than 90 percent of what is out there on KU. Snap it up! You won’t be sorry!
