Review: Stork

Stork by Wendy Delsol

Summary: Family secrets. Lost memories. And the arrival of an ancient magical ability that will reveal everything.

Sixteen-year-old Katla LeBlanc has just moved from Los Angeles to Minnesota. As if it weren’t enough that her trendy fashion sense draws stares, Katla soon finds out that she’s a Stork, a member of a mysterious order of women tasked with a very unique duty. But Katla’s biggest challenge may be finding her flock at a new school. Between being ignored by Wade, the arrogant jock she stupidly fooled around with, and constantly arguing with gorgeous farm boy and editor-in-chief Jack, Katla is relieved when her assignment as the school paper’s fashion columnist brings with it some much-needed friendship. But as Homecoming approaches, Katla uncovers a shocking secret about her past — a secret that binds her fate to Jack’s in a way neither could have ever anticipated. With a nod to Hans Christian Andersen and inspired by Norse lore, Wendy Delsol’s debut novel introduces a hip and witty heroine who finds herself tail-feathers deep in small-town life.

My Thoughts: I had a blast reading Stork by Wendy Delsol. I absolutely loved the incorporation of Norse mythology, which is such a nice change from the more popular use of Greek/Roman/etc mythology. This is a very unique story with unique characters and events. I really thought it was a lot of fun to read. Kat and Jack are great main characters, and both are quite easy to like. Add to it some humor thrown in there a bit, and you have a winning combination!

I really, really liked Stork, and am looking forward to reading Frost, the next chapter of Kat’s story. And, initially, I wanted to give it 4-4.5 stars, but after a couple of weeks, I think that’s not enough.
