I think this is a wonderfully written new story that my students will absolutely love! As a child I was obsessed with tinker bell and her fairy friends and this would have brought me so much joy as a young reader.

100% for fans of the original Pixie Hollow books or just of the Tinker Bell movies! We have waited soooo long for the backstory of Clarion and Lord Milori and the author did not disappoint. I also adore that it came in a YA format, to add a little more suspense (the danger feels a bit more real in a YA than the original children’s series). It felt good to be in Neverland again!

I am so happy to have the chance to read this ‘origin’ story for Queen Clarion! I enjoyed it so much, and I love how it added lore to the fairies universe. It was fantastic, and I will recommend it!

Such a beautiful book!! I am so happy I got to read this now! I could not put it down once I started. It truly was a magical read. Allison Saft is a writing genius!!

I've never seen tinkerbell so this was all new to me. it was enchanting similar to Saft's other work but like her other work it's also very heavy on wording and not much on plot. Reading this felt like my life moved in slow motion. The romantasy aspect also wasn't as touched upon as I'd hoped, but overall it was still a beautiful and atmospheric read.

I thought this would be a cute light read but I didn't expect to love it THIS MUCH. like, star crossed lovers!? Pixie Hollow!? YES YES YES.

This was everything I expected it to be and more! This whole world was such a big part of my childhood so it was incredibly nostalgic reading this and I absolutely loved it!

In this enchanting story, we are introduced to Clarion before she becomes Queen of Pixie Hollow. Clarion has always been intrigued by the Winter Woods, but has been kept busy with her preparations for her coronation. When a monster, that is believed to have crossed from Winter to Spring, starts to terrorize the fairies of Pixie Hollow, Clarion takes it upon herself to investigate. At the edge of Winter, she meets Milori, the fairy in charge of Winter. Together they do the impossible, cross into each other's worlds, with not only great success, but with major consequences.

The background story that we truly needed of the fairies who live in Pixie Hollow. I have loved Pixie Hollow and the fairies since I was a kid. Reading a background story of Clarion and Milori was an absolute dream come true! It was beautiful and breathtaking.

The cover of Wings of Starlight intrigued me, and I was excited to read this fantasy romance. Because the characters are fairies and live in Pixie Hollow, I knew there would have to be some world building elements to the story; however, I felt that many of these descriptive scenes made the pacing drag. Also, these descriptive scenes seemed to overshadow the romance in the story. I could see that the romance should be happening between the characters, but I couldn't feel it happening. The few romantic moments between two of the fairies seemed rushed to me, and that was disappointing. I just wanted more from this promising romantasy.

As someone who loved reading the Disney fairy books and watching the Tinkerbell movies, this scratched an itch. It didn't take too long to fall back into the world of fairies, but it was interesting to get a different perspective this time around. Reading through Clarion's perspective made me want to go back and watch the movies again for the first time in years. Can't wait to see this hit shelves!

Even knowing how the lore would force this book to end, I read it with hopes for a happy ending. Wings of Starlight is a book about knowing oneself and deciding the path to take; of responsibilities and selfless sacrifices for the good of others. The author did a good job creating characters that captured my heart. She took me to Pixie Hollow and made me feel the struggles Clarion went through to protect her people.

I would recommend this book for older middle grades on up. It is a squeaky clean book with romance and adventure. For the more discerning readers there are deeper messages of integrity and noble sacrifice.

Thank you Netgalley for the advance reader copy. All opinions are my own.

I read this book eventhough I know nothing of the Pixie Hollow because the cover was pretty. The story is light and fun and the authors writing is very immersive. Pacing was a bit slow tho, but overall this was a good read.

The cover is absolutely stunning and if you loved making your own fairy on the Disney website this will be right up your alley. This book was whimsical and a bit bittersweet. The pacing at times felt slow but felt like Saft was focused on building the world and atmosphere. I've loved Allison's book since A Far Wilder Magic, can't wait to see what she comes up with next.

Allison Saft’s writing is lyrical and immersive. The tension between duty and desire is masterfully portrayed, leaving me breathless with anticipation for what comes next. The stakes are high, but it’s the emotional resonance of their journey that truly stands out. Wings of Starlight beautifully explores themes of love, sacrifice, and the courage to embrace one’s true feelings, making it a heartfelt and unforgettable read. If you’re looking for a story that captures the magic of romance and the power of connection, this book is a must-read.

This was one of my most anticipated reads of the year and, let me tell you, it did not disappoint! I have always been curious about the main characters’ love story and ate it up at every page. I’m a sucker for a forbidden romance and Allison Saft did it so perfectly. I cried, I laughed, and I swooned. There isn’t much else I can say without spoiling the story, but I highly recommend this read if you are a fan of Tinker Bell or fairies in general!

This book had a lot of adjectives but not a lot of plot. It was painfully slow-moving, largely because the author wanted to describe every single thing in the environment and tell the reader every thought Clarion had. I had to keep stopping and putting it down.

Thank you to Netgalley for the opportunity to read this book in exchange for an honest review!

Another instant favorite from Allison Saft! Gorgeous prose and use of imagery! I loved the subtle call backs and easter eggs for Secret of the Wings! This was a perfect setup and backstory for these characters, and I LOVED the insight into Queen Clarions actions and point of view. Her journey and emotions felt very realistic and resonated with me <3

This was a nice quick, nostalgic read. I always loved Tinker Bell and Pixie Hollow as a kid so it was so much fun to jump back into the world as an adult.

I'm not the biggest fan of the author's other works due to the writing style. This one was a little easier to digest which made it more enjoyable.

Overall, this is a solid read for fans of Pixie Hollow or the author.

Rated 3.5 stars rounded up to 4. Thank you to the publisher and Netgalley for the ARC ebook.

I went into this book knowing nothing of the Pixie Hollow universe and mainly motivated by the fact that it was written by Allison Saft, one of my favorite authors. Having no previous knowledge, I didn't feel lost or confused as Saft easily immerses the reader in the world from the beginning. The story is light and fun throughout, but overall I miss the dark yearning themes that are often present in Saft's work. Without this the whole thing felt a bit bland and juvenile, which I suppose makes sense for a Disney book.

The Pixie Hollow books had a chokehold on my heart during my childhood. I still look back on them and wish I could find something that holds that same wonder and magic. Reading this felt just like going back. I loved how lyrical it was!
