One of those proper kid dreams where your happy one minute and terrified/ sad the next! It's one of those books where you feel like you're resurfacing from Dumbledore's pensieve or something!<br /><br />andimnotevenjoking.blogspot.com Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04650977464525681422noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3226943261907804224.post-84386821386617924892013-01-07T14:39:06.849+00:002013-01-07T14:39:06.849+00:00This is actually one of my favourite books!

It's so funny ...That was such a lovely comment! It's so funny you mention Angela Carter because I have a book of fairytales by her and I recently got the entire collection of Grimm. I love a wide variety of books but fantasy is easily my favourite genre :). I loved the Noughts and Crosses series by Malorie Blackman and if you haven't read The Alchemyst by Michael Scott, you really should! It's the first in a series to do with magic and Nicholas Flamel who was mentioned in the Harry Potter books! I really think you'd enjoy the Rivers of London series too, along with the Chemical Garden Trilogy (Wither being the first book). There's also A Great and Terrible Beauty by Libba Bray. I hope to do reviews on a few of these books in the future so stay tuned to the Blogger's Bookshelf :D xolucyhasnocluehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08491734104186193300noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3226943261907804224.post-20482410200866807472012-12-23T20:41:11.319+00:002012-12-23T20:41:11.319+00:00I loved this book too Lucy - and it was genuinely ...I loved this book too Lucy - and it was genuinely quite terrifying! There are few books I have found quite so mesmerising either, and after I finished I got a feeling of loss and emptiness that it was over, and started looking to books that might be like it. Apart from Angela Carter's fairytales, there aren't many! I'd be interested to know what other books you would recommend, Lucy, because I think we might have similar reading tastes! xThe Postcolonial Rabbithttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05264728770572661572noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3226943261907804224.post-47114434560789909222012-12-23T18:43:59.173+00:002012-12-23T18:43:59.173+00:00I've heard amazing things about this book.
