I'm currently reading "The King in the Window" by Adam Gopnik. It's a children's fantasy that touches on Lewis Carroll's "Through the Looking Glass" (among other things) and - for ONCE in a children's fantasy - it's original enough that until about fifty pages ago I had no idea where it was going (but what an amazing ride!)

Now I know where it's going, sort of, but I STILL don't know how it's going to get there or even just what will happen, and I'm only about 100 pages from the end.

It's very good. VERY good. Hopefully it keeps it up until the end. I shall be sad if it doesn't live up to its promise so far.

But if it does live up to it, I am stalking this author's books. This one makes up for every single disaster I picked up at the same library book sale. For this book, I would have happily paid FULL price!

A gem of a book that I should have read DECADES ago:

And plan to watch the original movie, too.
