My Fairly Dangerous Godmother

By: Janette Rallison

Narrated by: Heather Masters

Length: 13 hrs and 55 mins

Publisher's summary

Some people bomb auditions. Sadie Ramirez throws up during her tryouts on TV show America's Top Talent. Her performance is so bad, it earns her a fairy godmother through the Magical Alliance's Pitiful Damsel Outreach Program. Enter Chrysanthemum Everstar: a gum-chewing, cell-phone-carrying, high-heel-wearing fairy godmother in training.

She misinterprets Sadie's wishes and sends her back in time to be a part of The Little Mermaid story and then makes her one of the 12 dancing princesses. Wishes are permanent, and if Sadie wants to get back to her home, she'll have to strike a magical bargain - one that involves stealing a goblet from a powerful fairy queen. With a little help from a handsome and talented thief, she might be able to pull it off.

Good clean fun

We enjoyed listening to this as a family. Just when you think you know where the story is going, the author shakes things up in delightful ways.

So cute!

I love this series! I really wish that they would make audiobooks of the first two books as well. ❤️

Great story

Was there a moment in the book that particularly moved you?

When Donovan did something spoiler-y.

Any additional comments?

Great story. I didn't really get into it until the first act was over, but once all the pieces were on the table and the real conflict was revealed, it got a lot more interesting. The resolution was a lot of fun too--neat and tidy, but not unduly so.

Enjoyable fairytale mashup with entertaining characters

Heather's performance is wonderful. I found myself laughing out loud at the characters mishaps and the narration which brought it to life.
I'd recommend it to fans of fairytale retellings, and any fans of Rallison's work.
I enjoyed exploring the Twelve Dancing Princess tales, the Frog Prince, and The Little Mermaid. Rallison has a great sense of humor conveyed through her characters.

This was so much fun!

This book was so much fun to listen to! It was a little silly, but it got to be so amazing by the end. I would highly recommend this book. The narrator was excellent!

Loved it!

I love this author's sense of humor and the reader's voice was perfect!
I fully recommend this book!

Fun and creative story

I enjoyed this fun and creative take on some classic fairy tales. It was well written and clever. I look forward to reading more from this author.

Cute

Bit silly in parts but overall just a fun story. Be careful what you wish for..

Loved it!

I’ve always complained about authors who aren’t creative enough when they’ve been given the gift of writing. I enjoyed this writing so much that I am ready to read another book of hers. I found this book because I love the narrator and was searching for more that she narrates. This is my 5th book I’ve listened to narrated by Heather Masters, she performed flawlessly.

The story was exactly the type I love reading. Young adult thrown into fairytale stories. I’d love to find more fun stories like this one.

Another winner by Rallison!

MY TAKE
There was a more ominous feel to this story than the previous ones. Kind of like the difference between the Disney fairytales and the original ones. Once again Rallison excels in making the characters fun and full of snarky humor. The characters growth is awesome, and romance sizzled.

I listened to the audiobook, and the narrator did a great job.
