Some days my decision to wait until there‘s enough DWJ books to buy that I can qualify for free shipping weighs more heavily than others (I already have the complete Moving Castle trilogy)

Always a joy to read. Love this world that the author has built.

What do bad karma and constant changes brought about by someone manipulating the multiverse have in common? Conrad‘s about to find out. Another Chrestomaci reread with my husband. I love the way things come together throughout this one. I didn‘t remember anything about this book other than “why?👁️👄👁️”. I‘m very glad I reread it. #Fantasy #MiddleGrade #Multiverse

Kenyazero My husband really enjoyed the way this book shows how getting away from a manipulative, terrible family helps you discover your own power, and often times the greatest power is supportive friends. 10mo

The time has come to pull this absolutely, gloriously, cursed cover off…

The longer you look, the more questions you have for the artist

keithmalek No! Don't do that! 12mo

GondorGirl This cover looks like it was painted by someone who had never seen a cat. Or a human... 😅 12mo

Obsessed.

I‘ve got one more frame / book cover to go…

GondorGirl This is such a neat idea! 12mo
thegirlwiththelibrarybag @GondorGirl, Thank-you!! I love DWJ covers but often the paperbacks are pretty mangled and I have the new editions so I don‘t really need an extra reading copy… and this way I get to enjoy them daily. (edited) 12mo

Jones creates a school full of loveable and hateable students and tells this story in an interesting manner. I liked it a lot better now rereading it with my husband, but didn't care for this when I first read it as a teen. It's an interesting entry in the Chresomanci series. #Witches #Magic

Continuing my reread of this series with this book that I don‘t remember at all (other than that I didn‘t like it as a teen). It‘s a pretty quirky story packed full of Romeo and Juliet nods, cats, and an interesting sung magic system. This hardly has anything to do with Chrestomanci compared to the books collected in the first volume. #magic #cats #MultipleWorlds
