The Palace of Laughter- Jon Berekeley
This book is well written and fast paced, for those of you who hate to read slow moving books. It is about a young boy who tries to enter a circus that seems to pop up overnight. There he meets all kinds of wonders and things that shouldn't exist. When he meets a little girl named Little, he learns that there is something wrong with the circus and what it is. Such as a little man calling himself the Great Cortado *my nickname for him just happens to be Ego-stroker* planning world domination and an assortment of other things.
Fairest-Gail Carson Levine.
This book is kind of like the sequel to Ella Enchanted. It has the same setting and it's in the same time period. One of the characters is also in Ella Enchanted. The only difference is that this girl, unlike Ella, is the supposed daughter of an innkeeper. But her singing voice and the blanket she was found in, proves different. She discovers that she can do all kinds of things with her voice. And eventually someone really important asks for her help. ( Mainly because of her cat)
Changeling- Delia Sherman
A changeling is a human that was switched at birth with a fairy child. This changeling, known as Neef, now lives in the New York Between, where everything magical comes to life. Animals talk, and there are beasts that will hunt you down if you're not careful. Neef, excited about the upcoming Solstice dance, breaks her treaty with the Green Lady of Central Park. In order to regain every right and protection that she had under the treaty back, she must go on a quest for 3 impossible items.
Fire Star- Chris D'Lacey
The third book in the series, another book full of dragons, talking animals, and, of course, one of the best story lines ever. This time, he's got a polar bear on his tail, one trying to steal the gem he holds. He has no idea how to defend himself, but then, think about it. Would you if you were freezing your butt off?
