Throwdown Thursday is a new meme started by Kate at The Neverending Shelf. This is a weekly thing where we tackle books with similar characters, covers, themes, etc. to determine which one rocks more. And it is up to YOU to determine the winner!
Last week, I threwdown (is that a word?) Robin Wasserman’s Skinned and Mary E. Pearson’s The Adoration of Jenna Fox. Kind of a toughie, since I personally love them both. The winner was…
Jenna Fox. By a landslide!
My Throwdown this Thursday is between two books which both feature characters who seem like ordinary teenagers… until they grow wings.
Which one gets your vote? Wings or Fairy Tale? Just leave a comment below telling me which of the reads you're backing, and why. Your word, my friends, is law.

Fairy Tale, definitely, because not only is a cute story, but I couldn't even get through Wings, sadly enough.
Oh this is hard because I love both books! They are also very different...really.
Wings has more of a happy, "I'm a fairy, and I met another hot fairy guy!" kind of book....
Fairy Tale is about a boy who is becoming a fairy and it's NOT so cool. It's about love and loss, and not putting all your eggs in one basket.
It's a tough one! I can't choose!!! I loved them both! and interviewed BOTH authors!! Best fairy tale's of the summer!
I gotta vote for Fairy Tale. It was a really, really good book.
I'm about to read Wings and I really want to read Fairy Tale now. BTW There's an award for you on my blog! http://rhiannon-hart.blogspot.com/2009/08/audacity-of-huge.html
That's tough... but I think I'll have to choose Wings!

I have The Adoration of Jenna Fox but I haven't had a chance to read it yet. Now, I want to put my book aside and start it. Well, at the very least, I'll probably read it next. :)
This is a cool meme, I'm looking forward to the next Throwdown.
My vote goes to Wings. I really enjoyed the authors spin on Faeries.
