Book Blurb:
Throne of Silver
The Silver Fae Book 1
by K.B. Anne
Genre: YA Urban Fantasy
Meet Starr Bishop, the girl next door. Well, if the girl next door can deliver a dropkick to the throat and is possibly supernatural.
A secret organization wants me as an assassin. Me, kill someone? No way. The General also hints that I’m a superior being—whatever the hell that means. But it might explain the strange flickering thing that’s been happening to me lately.
And then there's Christian, the goth-loner who casts disdainful glares in my direction like it’s his day job. When I go missing, he goes all superhero and finds me. And what’s with his eyes changing shape when he doesn’t think I’m looking at him?
Now there’s this crazy-ass chemistry between us, but I must deny my feelings. Christian is a complication, and my life is complicated enough. If I give in, I could put both of our lives at risk, and I’ve already lost two friends because of the Organization.
But when Christian goes missing, I follow him into a world of deception, lies, and secret realms. No worries. I’ve got this. After all, the General wanted me as an assassin. If I can learn to tap into my true nature, I can kick the Organization’s ass.
The trouble is, the Organization will stop at nothing to pick up their top recruit. Will I figure out what superior being I am before it’s too late?
If you like Linsey Hall, CN Crawford, Chandelle LeVaun, Leia Stone, Michelle Maddow, McKenzie Hunter, and Jaymin Eve, you’ll love the highly addictive Silver Fae series.

My Review:
3 Out Of 5 Stars
Genre: Faeries, Romance, Supernatural, Suspense, Teen--
I enjoyed the relationship between the main character and her nemesis-turned-hero. He was cute and charming, always willing to step in to help- even if it took almost a whole book to kinda sorta figure out the whys he was helping. The banter between them was entertaining and the romance was a perfect escape to the dangerous action that was the rest of the book.
I found myself struggling a little bit with the story for a few different reasons. The book starts off with regular high school stuff, with friends and classes with an overall lighthearted vibe- and then the story takes a complete 180 at like chapter 7 where it gets dark and confusing and action packed. I didn't mind the switch, but there seemed to be no real explanation and I was floundering as the reader even while the main character was completely able to roll with the new events. Things just kept happening as the action ramped up, but there was never any real transition between dangerous/stressful encounters or giant truth bombs (that I really needed explained), it almost felt like I should have known all this information to begin with. It made it super hard for me to get invested when I was not even sure what was going on. I couldn't wrap my head around the fact the main character (who believed she was a normal teen girl not trained or prepared in any way for whatever was going on) never went home to her parents (or at least called) after dodging a kidnapping, how she could just turn off her emotions when her people are murdered. It felt like nobody ever asked questions, just accepted the crazy of the story- and here I was just trying to keep everything straight and follow the plot.
Overall I feel this series has a lot of potential to develop into a very interesting supernatural action series. I think this is the perfect read for anyone who likes fast paced quick reads that feature Fae, paranormal romance, tons of action, and capable YA female characters.
KB once smashed into a tree while skiing. The accident led to a concussion, a cracked sternum, temporary notoriety as a sixth grader returned from the dead, and the realization that fictionalized accounts are way more interesting than just slipping on the ice.
