All Evie wants is to be normal ... instead, she′s stuck at the center of a dark faerie prophecy promising death and destruction to the paranormal world.

Evie′s always thought of herself as a normal teenager, despite the fact that she works for the International Paranormal Containment Agency (IPCA), she can see through paranormals′ glamours, her best friend is a mermaid, and her ex-boyfriend is a lunatic-and a faerie.

In a world where paranormals are monitored and controlled, Evie has at least been able to take comfort in the fact that she′s human...Until she finds out she′s not. With everything she believes called into question, Evie′s drawn to the newest IPCA prisoner, a shapeshifter named Lend. Unfortunately their friendship and flirting is complicated by the information he carries: a faerie prophecy of death and destruction that seems to revolve around Evie herself.

The excellencies of this book lays in its unique characters, interesting plot, filing details and capturing emotions. Throughout the book, the author introduces many new discoveries to the main character, and what comes after would truly stagger you. The last page of this book would make you sigh and the moments after it, make you smile and wonder.

As a sixteen year old Evie is unique in more ways then one. Not many other humans have as much knowledge about the real world as she does and no other sixteen year old in the world is employed by an international organisation whose aim it is to protect humanity against all that is paranormal. She is also unique in one other way; no other person is able to see the world quite as clearly as she can, that is her special gift.

Evie has long dreamed of a normal life away from vampires, werewolves and especially faeries, a life with parents, school, lockers and prom. However she has accepted her home in the Centre and her job within International Paranormal Containment Agreement. She actually never thought enough about her life to question it, until the break-in, the discovery of a new paranormal and the deaths that begin to haunt her every footsteps.

Paranormalcy is a thrilling mix of danger and romance. It is exciting to see a heroine who is not afraid to be girlie with her pink stiletto boots and her custom made pink weapons that allow her to still kick butt when she needs to. The villains may be misunderstood, the paranormals may have uncertain motives but Evie can see clearly through them all to their very souls. A truly imaginative read and one that is highly recommended.
