Star Rating:  ★★★★  

Alice Ayre is no ordinary teenager. She took her first name from a statue in Central Park, pulled her last name out of the air (literally), and she’s actually almost a thousand years old. In fact, the only “ordinary” thing about Alice is that she’s in love. Alice was a sylphid—a winged air spirit—when she spotted Daniel Field camping in the Adirondacks and lost her heart to the handsome NYU student. Intangible to the human senses, her only hope of winning his heart resides in becoming mortal, even though transmutation is forbidden by Paralda, ruler of the air. Risking punishment, however, seems a small price to pay for a chance at true happiness. Tracking down Daniel in New York City ends up being surprisingly easy. Getting noticed by him for all the right reasons is another story, especially when the human world keeps tossing challenges in Alice’s path. Just when she’s mastered zippers and buttons, she catches herself dropping a sugar packet into her coffee and mistaking a photo of John Lennon for one of Daniel’s relatives. Her eccentricities raise the occasional eyebrow with Daniel and his friends, but her quirky charm, sweetness, and sincerity win out. Before long, she lands a job, begins a relationship with Daniel, and starts settling into her new life—until her past comes after her.
            

My Book Review: 

This book is whole heartedly the reason I love self-published authors. I am so happy that I was given the chance to read Thin Air otherwise I would have missed out on a simply amazing book. Thin Air will captured your heart from page one and leave you wanting more by then end of the book. I so read this book in one day - with such a charming story-line and a enchanting romance between a human boy and a air-fairy girl. One choice will lead to two lives being changed forever!!

A young fairy girl, Aeris who lives among the clouds is destined for a beautiful life with her family and friends, but one day will lead to her life being torn in two.  As Aeris comes a pond a young man who is camping in the woods with a woman, who both seem to be in love. Aeris watches them both but is drawn to Daniel, and ultimately begins to fall in love with him although he can not see her. Later Aeris will choose to make a difficult decision which will now change her's and Daniels life's forever. Would you sacrifice your life for the one you love? The decision she makes will begin to push the story forward and lead you into a world where nothing is impossible to a girl who is in LOVE and a boy who will begin to see the world in a whole new light.

If your looking for a truly magical book than Thin Air would be perfect. I adored the character's in the book. Aeris and Daniel were such a delight to read about. As well as the side character's which all have a wonderful sprites about them. There was not a boring moment in the book. I so loved to read about Aeris and Daniels love-story throughout the book. Such a pure, gentle, and unselfish  love which I found to be quite breathtaking. I truly have become a big fan of books with a elemental story-line - and Thin Air is no exception but was amazing in all area's throughout the story. A perfect combo of magic and true love with never a dull moment - It was such a joy for me to read and I believe that all ages would so enjoy this book especially someone who believes in  the power of love!

The author Lynn Seresin has written such a captivating and magical novel. Thin Air will never leave the reader disappointed but will capture your heart.  I was blown away at the ending of Thin Air and so left me wanting to find out what happens next!
