It was one of my top five favorite books the year it came out (2012?). It's mystical and yes, a little sad, but there is so much hope in it. I hope you can try it again! :)Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03686178925901139554noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20429083.post-25486509583804991342014-02-25T23:35:27.479-05:002014-02-25T23:35:27.479-05:00Snicker of Magic is sure receiving a lot of buzz! ...Snicker of Magic is sure receiving a lot of buzz!

I've been hearing so much hype about it. I go in phases, it seems, where I alternate between reading kid lit and adult fiction. I read kid lit until I'm tired of reading about the trials of children and then I read adult fiction until I'm tired of the sadness of adulthood. Such a cycle!

I forget to include some of the articles and links that occupy a huge portion of my reading life right now.

I don't particularly like dark and sad, although much of adult fiction has elements of both.

I was able to get multiple copies of it from Scholastic Book Clubs for my Mock Newbery Club because they're selling it in paperback and at a great cost! Can't wait to dig into it. I LOVED A Snow Child, so I hope you come back to it some day. :-)Holly Muellerhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00476411667354933648noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20429083.post-63800566688055753772014-02-24T12:12:06.832-05:002014-02-24T12:12:06.832-05:00OMG!

Maybe it's just the way the characters were written to just be so darn loveable, but I definitely felt that same magic from both of these books.
