Elven

Not many people believe in elves. Unless you live in Iceland, in which 54.4% of the population DO believe in elves.
Unfortunately, Lily Beachbranch does not live in Iceland. She lives in the suburbs. Boring suburbs. The only exciting part of Lily's seemingly mundane town is the downtown area, but none of the kids are allowed to go there. Their parents always say it's because of the sketchy people who roam the downtown streets, or the old, sagging, moldy buildings that line Main Street. But, for some reason, Lily finds herself drawn to downtown.
Little does Lily know, the cause for her strange attraction has to do with elves. Real, actual, pointy-eared elves. And soon, Lily starts changing.
With the help of a friend and a cat, can Lily get through this? Or, more importantly, what happens afterwards?

This book is science fiction disguised as fantasy, so for those looking for a Tolkeinesque book with elves who have hard to pronounce names and complicated life stories, THIS IS NOT THAT.

Sorry. The Hobbit is a pretty good book.
