"Torn" by Amanda Hocking

I've read a few chapters during the holidays and the book is getting better and better. Wendy has now told her brother about her life as a Trylle and how she is the princess of the kingdom. It has been very hard for Wendy to accept the fact that Matt (her host brother) is not her real brother and that they are completely different, however Matt is very similar to Rhys (his real brother) and they are starting to bond over their human qualities. Wendy is starting to feel left out and abandoned by Matt, which is causing her to drift further apart from him. She is in a bit of a dilemma though, she wants to fit in with the "humans" more than anything so she can stay close to her brother but then on the other hand she couldn't be more different than them and she doesn't want any part of human life or their lifestyle. Other than this whole jealousy problem she is dealing with, Finn has left her once again, leaving her distraught and betrayed. Wendy loves Finn and she knows that he loves her back which is the hardest thing for her because she can't understand why someone who loves her would ever leave her over and over again. She is feeling all these feeling (betrayal, jealousy, anger, sadness, disappointment) and at the same time she has to decide wether or not she wants to be the queen of the Trylle or of the Vittra. They are also trolls but they are evil, they use their powers for the worst things like death and manipulation, torture and control. Wendy's father, Oren, is the king of the Vittra making her his only heir to the throne. The reason why she is the only heir to the throne is because there is a curse of infertility past on through the Vittra, no woman who is part of the Vittra can conceive a child, the only reason that Wendy was born was because her mother was a Trylle (good troll) so the curse did not affect her. Another curse in the Vittra is the curse of the goblins, when by odd chance a Vittra women is able to conceive a child the child is born as a hideous goblin, with hairy ears and a huge nose as well as green skin and many warts. Even though the curses in the Vittra are awful, the Vittra would never become Trylle as they are all brainwashed by Oren, he tells them that violence is the key to survival and that peace is for the weak.
All in all I am loving this book and I can't wait to read more of it!
