Magic for Beginners

Magic for Beginners by Kelly Link
2006
Weight: 11 oz
Method of Disposal: Donating


This book is magical (unlike the British folks in my previous entry).  It was recommended to me by my Agnes Scott Creative Writing adviser, Dermont and, as usual, I loved it.  It was particularly exciting because it was a book I never would have picked up on my own.  I don't know why.  I just don't think it would have grabbed me, but once I opened it I could tell it was wonderful and different.  The stories were unusual and fantastical but completely believable.  I ended up writing about this book, among others, for my senior thesis. I really do hate to let it go...
