Tithe: A Modern Faerie Tale Audiobook (Unabridged)

" Love Holly Black's super smart protagonists and twists but Kaye was wild and hard to relate to. I LOVED Roibon and the fairy tale aspect of the book, but didn't get the whole Corny story line. They were instantly best friends? And why was Kaye green? "

" Another book I would've liked a lot more if there weren't so much swearing, and some questionable content. :( "

" This darkest and most grittily disturbing of the new modern faerie tales stars Kaye, a pixie changeling who has spent all her life feeling out of place thinking she was human. Before she is thrown into the ugly politics of the two faerie courts that seek to use her, we must dirty ourselves as we barely stomach the vulgarities of her friends, her "mother" and her deeply sad, tortured, aimless life. This book is too dark and vulgar both in language and contact for most tweens and teens that would be drawn to a faerie tale. Though the book improves towards the end, I would hardly recommend this book. It leaves a bad taste in your mouth even if the ending seems sweet. Fellow fans of Aprilynne Pike's Wings series and Jenna Black's Faeriewalker books should steer clear unless they have a strong stomach. "

" I liked Valiant (same author, different plot) and Wicked Lovely (same plot, different author) much better. I'll still read the third in this trio, but I'm glad I read Valiant first or I may not have made that decision. "

" A lot of swearing. It was a good book, but not a favorite. "

" Kaye finds she there is a reason she feels alienated, it's not just teen angst. Good story, too much cussing for middle school! "

" A gripping faerie tale with horror, romance and urban fantasy. The poems at the start of the chapters add to the eeriness. "

" Fantastic book. Fast paced and well written. It's a teeny-bopper fantasy book with a wide array of characters. I liked the heroine of the story very much. A very very good read! "

" I wasn't super impressed with the writing, but I suppose I'll still read the sequels since so many people have recommended the trilogy to me. "

" Dark, gritty and totally fantastic read. Characters you love to hate, and hate to love. "

" This book was dark and fresh. Definitely a good cross over from YA to Adult. I loved it! "

" Having a hard time getting into this, so I'm moving it back to the to read list. "

" I've read a number of faery books most of them were readable, but unfortunately this isn't one of them. It was a total waste of time. crappiest book ever. "

" Dark and fantastic...one of the first books that led me to the amazing world of YA fiction! "

" I love this book it is my absolute favorite book of all time, its was the start of all the evil faerie topic that is now a big sensation right now "

" Oh God, this is the first time I gave a book one star. It was so bad, how in the world did I even finish it? "

" One of my favorite Faery Tale stories, with a touch of modern mixed with classic elements. It has a gritty dark feel with a honest sadness about young people who must find their identity between two worlds...it is amazing how we can ignore what is right in front of our eyes. "

" I didn't think it was possible, but there is such a thing as too much swearing. Didn't finish the book, I got way too annoyed reading the first few pages. "

" it was so good i read it in a day "

" it was a very interesting book. but not enough to keep still reading the next book of the series. "

" fav in series. i love kay and roiben. roiben is so hot lol. "

" Continues to be my favourite book by putting a dark twist on faerie tales. I've reread this book at least once a year since I bought it. "

" Loved...didn't like the language but the book was amazing. (There is A LOT of language too.) "

" Great book! Definitely wanna read the second part. It's a lot like Wicked Lovely, but not too much. "

" Love it; I've reread it and the other books of the series more times than I can count. Sounds like typical teen fiction but it's far far better. "

" I really loved Holly Black's "White Cat" series, so I was looking forward to reading her faerie series as well. This book didn't quite have the polish or the originality that I was hoping for. "

" a good book but a bit of unnecessary swearing, people don't swear that much. "

" Awful. I read it in high school, and it's amazing that I still remember how much I disliked every character, every concept, and every chapter. "
