Senrid 11 reviews Sherwood Smith
YA Angst, 2007
Better after 'Over the Sea'
+ a good read
I enjoyed 'Senrid' moderately, but was frustrated by the references to people and places not explained here. 'Over the Sea - CJ's First Notebook' fills in a lot of the needed background, and I would strongly recommend reading it first. I think my reread of 'Senrid' will be much more pleasant.

Cygnet 2 reviews Patricia A. McKillip
Ace Trade, 2007
The Cygnet flies
+ Two in one
Two of Patricia McKillip's most lyrical books are the Cygnet duology, the story of a sorcerous family and the mysterious forces that shape their world. "Cygnet" compiles those books, bringing together the intoxicating mixture of unique magic, invisible dragons, and McKillip's shimmering prose.

Worldweavers: Gift of the Unmage (Worldweavers) 9 reviews Alma Alexander
Eos, 2007
A beautifully wriiten book...
+ Courtesy of Teens Read Too
This book was a perfect mixture of Madeline L'Engle's a Wrinkle In Time, old native american folklore, with some Hogwarts academy thrown in. Thea is the main character of the book and she wonderfully portrays a young woman who is unsure of herself in society and at home. This book made me think and ...
