Oh, I loved this book. De Lint's Newford - where magic lives right on the verge of reality. He addresses so many difficult subjects with such sensitivity. And his characters might be some of my favorites. Can't wait to jump into the third Newford book. #NewfordOrBust

#TwoForTuesday @TheSpineView

1. It's a tough choice between The Night Circus (Morgenstern) and Dreams Underfoot (de Lint). If I had to choose, it would probably be The Night Circus.
2. July's #BookSpinBingo and the July 1-7 #CYOReadathon
I have a heck of a list of books to tackle this month!

Catherine_Willoughby What are the requirements for #CYOReadathon ? I like to participate this weekend 😊 4y
AllisonM89 @Catherine_Willoughby i tagged you in posts for both 4y
TheSpineView Loved the Night Circus! Thanks for playing! 🤗📚🧡🌞 4y

@Avanders Thank You! You are awesome! This was a lovely pick me up for @cobwebmoth and myself on a sick day. You and @Chrissyreadit have spoiled me so much over this #LMPBC round. Your kindness and generosity are very much appreciated. I haven't read that de Lint book yet. It just jumped to the top of my tbr. 😃

Avanders Yay I‘m glad you liked everything!! 👏🏽👏🏽 And I hope you 2 are starting to feel better!! 😷🤗🤗 I haven‘t read enough de Lint by any stretch of the imagination, but everything I‘ve read has been so good! One of my favorite books of 2018 was 5y

Finished the last bit of this one on audio this morning. This book spoke to the very heart of me. It was such a profoundly healing and inspiring process to journey through it with its characters. I cannot wait to continue my travels in Newford. ✨🎶🎨🗝

Kitta I used to be obsessed with Charles de lint, maybe I should get into reading them again! So good. 7y

Not to delve too much into spoilers but #DrJekyllandMrHyde made me think of the villain in this wonderful book about a woman whose paintings come to life.

I haven't read this in probably 15 years, but I still remember how shocked I was when his kindness turned into extreme cruelty.

Kammbia1 I read this when it first came out in 1994. I was a bookseller at that time and got it free from the publisher. One of my favorite DeLint novels along with The Little Country and Moonheart. 7y

This is for @Leniverse and @Foragingfantasy - the place to start if you want to try Charles DeLint.
Memory & Dream - first Newford novel
Dreams Underfoot - first book of Newford stories

Newford - DeLint's north american city where reality & fantasy overlap. Lots of recurring locales and characters throughout his Newford books so you really get to know the place & all the interesting folk inhabiting it. Enjoy!

Leniverse Thanks! Adding to my never ending TBR and lookout list. 😆 7y
Craftylikefox 😍😍😍😍 I stumbled across Charles De Lint in High school. So worth reading. Plus a lot of the short stories make it easy to pick up read one and put it down IF you must 7y
Foragingfantasy Awesome!😘 7y
rubyslippersreads So glad you posted this—I've wanted to read Charles de Lint but had no idea where to start. 😊 7y

brennahawleycraig I've never read any of his stuff! What would you recommend to start with? 7y
TobeyTheScavengerMonk @brennahawleycraig Many of his books involve the same cast of characters living in the fictional city of Newford. The best novel to start with is 7y

Now that I am home from work, here is a picture of books from some of my fave Canadian authors for Fun Photo Friday @Liberty - also, Charles De Lint is completely wonderful! If you love mythopoeic fiction, he's your man.
