''Wicked Lovely'' is a young adult/urban fantasy novel by author Melissa Marr. It was published by HarperTeen, a division of HarperCollins, in June 2007. The novel has also been released in the United Kingdom, Italy, Australia, France, Denmark, Sweden, (under the title ''Mer än ögat ser'' meaning 'More than the eye sees'), Germany (under the title of ''Gegen das Sommerlicht'' meaning 'Against/Towards the Summer Light'.) and in Spain (under the title of "Encanto fatal" meaning 'Fatal Enchantment'). ''Wicked Lovely'' was originally written as a short story, ("The Sleeping Girl"), before the author decided to expand on her work in order to further develop the characters. She completed the novel over a period of four months, and submitted it to an agent in January, 2006. By early March of that year, it had been accepted for publication.〔 〕
== Reception ==
Reviews for the novel have been very positive. Annette Klause in The Washington Post spoke highly of the work, praising the "fully realized" world and the romance, while other reviewers, such as Charles de Lint, highlight both the tight plotting and the characterization. Nevertheless, there is some concern with the character of the Winter Queen: Klause found her to "a little too over the top to be totally threatening",〔 while de Lint simply describes her as "a bit of a stock villain".〔 Wicked Lovely debuted at #8 on the New York Times children's books bestseller list, and reached as high as #2. It stayed there for 11 weeks.The novel is described as being aimed at the Young Adult market, and some reviews chose to emphasize this, noting that the sexual tension and the "underlying darkness" ensure that ''Wicked Lovely'' is primarily appropriate for the over 12's.
