Fairy Disappointing

Fairy Sight by Patricia Bossano is not an YA/Adult fairytale like it claims to be. 
I had to DNF at 25% in and most of it I skipped because holy hellmatoes was it hard deciphering what visuals the author wanted the readers to take away. The words were super flowery and long winded to the point I was getting a headache by the time the sentence ended.
There is also one point where the author must have copy and pasted because it was the exact same description for the fairyland as it was in the beginning. Also, it lies she is not seventeen but eighteen years old as well as eleven and fifteen. I kind of wish the book had started with her being whatever age she is supposed to be 17 or 18 and went from there.
I got so bored that I found myself taking multiple breaks to the point where I started to read other books just so I would not have to torture myself with this book. I wanted to be dragged in because I love fairy tales or anything with fairies and human princesses/princes.
Maybe one day I will continue to read it, but during these times it is not quite the escape I was looking for in a book.
2 out of 5 stars.
If it was for middle grade or younger it would be 4 out of 5 because it reads that way.
