This is supposed to be a romance, but I refuse to count it as such.

I found Morgan to be very shallow, under disguise of having everlasting love. Let me paraphrase (no, these aren't actual quotes):

“I love Cam. I've always loved Cam. He's my best friend & the best boyfriend ever. He's hot, but really I love him because I know everything about him & I've been with him since the day we were both born. Nothing will ever make me stop loving him.”

“Cam is a fairy changeling?!?! And Pip is his parents' true son?!? But Pip is such a dork and Cam is so hot–and is my true love, of course.”

“Cam would want me to help Pip fit in more. But I still love Cam. Hmm, after my makeover, Pip is starting to be more of a babe magnet. And the fairy magic is making Cam look less hot & more like a fairy. Good thing I love Cam no matter what.”

“Cam is still losing weight & height, and his wings are growing bigger. Pip is getting hot. Why am I dreaming about kissing Pip? I love Cam!”

“It must be fairy magic making me attracted to Pip, because really I love Cam. Oh, you say I'm immune to fairy magic (for some totally unexplained reason)? How strange... because really, I will love Cam forever, no matter what.”

“Our plan to send Pip back to Fairyland instead of Cam is creating conflict in my heart (and my visions say it doesn't succeed, and they're never wrong). And Cam has lost his football skills & his confidence & his hotness... Good thing I will love him forever, no matter what.”

“It is time for Pip to take Cam's place & go back to Fairyland. Wait! No, I love Pip!! He can't go!! (But I will still love Cam forever...) Oh, Cam says that the only reason he wouldn't want to go to Fairyland is to make me happy, so if I'm happy with Pip, he'll go ahead and go. How conveniently that solves all my problems! I can have Pip stay with me (because he's hot, and I love him), and Cam can go be the Fairy King and marry a fairy who is incapable of love, and I will still love him forever, and I promise I won't forget him even though the fairy magic says I will, because we already established that I'm immune to fairy magic (for some still unexplained reason). Cool. Perfect ending!”

Need I say that I didn't think it was the perfect ending?
