I get a couple of uninterrupted reading hours this morning at my favorite coffee shop while my son is at jazz camp. It‘s a beautiful day outside, the coffee is delicious and this book is starting off wonderfully.

The Magician's Daughter | H. G. Parry

So you‘ve heard of Hy-Brasil? That mystical isle off the west coast of Ireland? 16 (or maybe 17) year old Bridget has grown up there with only 2 mages for company.

humouress She‘s only known 2 people all her life on the isle and she knew there was a lot they didn‘t tell her about the outside world. Now she is outside, learning more and presented with other‘s views of their past actions - does she/ do we still trust them? 5mo

humouress Ch 14/23 I love the way that Hutch (Rowan‘s rabbit familiar) still has rabbit mannerisms when he‘s human 5mo

humouress Ch 12/23: She‘s only ever known 2 people all her life on the isle and she knows there‘s a lot they didn‘t tell her about the outside world but now she is outside she‘s given different views of them and their actions. So does she/ do we trust them now? 5mo

This was a delightful original YA fantasy with no romance. About a teenage orphan who was taken in by a magician as a baby. The magician is trying to bring magic back into the world. This has a very unique world and magic system. It is also a standalone, which is a rarity. Though not highly complex, it was a fun read. 4⭐️

Carter Beats the Devil | Glen Gold

CARTER BEATS THE DEVIL is the latest stop on my Early-2000s Rereads Tour. I loved the hell out of it back in 2009, and I‘m still enjoying it here in 2024, with the usual caveats about racist depictions in early 20th century stage magic. I can‘t seem to actually sit down and READ IT, though. Hopefully I can get some momentum with it this weekend.
