Those things can drive me a bit nuts. Overall, I don't think this is a good fit for me but that's great you liked it well enough to want to check out the author's other books.<br /><br />-LaurenShooting Stars Maghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16074581473656321052noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6392313794653452735.post-51285650302919985122016-11-04T01:57:46.624-07:002016-11-04T01:57:46.624-07:00Interesting.

It sounds interesting though, so maybe one day? I'm loving that cover and I am curious about the mystical elements here.<br />Lovely review, Eva!Nickhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13304521473521896294noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6392313794653452735.post-21935052010659155182016-11-03T02:26:03.833-07:002016-11-03T02:26:03.833-07:00I agree with you - this isn't magical realism....I agree with you - this isn't magical realism.<br />I actually liked this book more then you did.
