As You Wish

The first thing I can say about this book is that it is as good as it looks. Honestly at first I was a bit skeptical since I had read very mixed reviews about it, but honestly this book was NOTHING but good. I loved it from the VERY beginning all the way to the end. It starts with Viola who has spent every day since her boyfriend broke up with her wishing she could find someone to love her again. Her old boyfriend is still best friends with her, but the problem is, he's gay, and he didn't tell her until it was too late to save her from serious heartache. Then one day when she must of been wishing really hard or just that deserving, she meets Jinn. He's one of many and is eager to return home but can't until he grants Viola three wishes. Viola is so terrified of wishing for the wrong thing that she is hesitant to wish at all. They spend so much time together that by the time Viola wishes for her first wish she realizes that she has fallen in love with Jinn, and he with her. She knows that is she wishes twice more he will not only disappear from her world, but from her memory as well, forever. She is desperate to keep him with her but with forces pressuring them both Viola will have to make a decision, one that may chance their lives forever. Overall I truly loved this book and that is why my overall grade has to be an A.
