Sometimes stuff for kids–books, movies, television–is either too dumbed down or too blowing-sunshine-up-their-butts for me. I can understand the desire to shield kids from the bad stuff that happens in life, but at the same time, kids are much smarter than a lot of adults give them credit for. I’m… Read more »

I really have a thing for fantasies set in worlds that lay alongside ours. The blurring of the edges between what we think of as reality and those magical worlds fascinates me, which is probably why I love the Harry Potter series so much (and why I’m working on a… Read more »
The Traitor’s Daughter is built upon an interesting concept, but it has some unfortunate flaws that make it difficult for me to really like it. It felt far too long and, for the majority of the book, had a disappointing lack of likable characters. Overall, this book feels like an… Read more »
