Alejandro Barrantes barrantesa1e8c — I have to say, this was a very enjoyable book to read. The concept is altogether intruging and unique, what with the whole Tradition thing going on. Of course, there was a little culture gap (the Book referred to the story of Rapunzel as "Lodderlocks" and drove me ballistic), but was altogether a good spin. The downside of the story is that Lackey seems to wander off-track half the time; there are huge sections of the book that seriously DO NOT NEED TO BE IN THERE! The part where she goes through her godmother's initiation, the whole scene with Alexander after his release as a donkey, and many other small scenes here and there. Another fault I fond was definitely Alexander's abrupt mood change. More than half the time the reader knows him, Alexander is stubborn. Lackey never explains in depth how he suddenly did a total 180 after meeting the Wild Fae, and the question is thrown up into the air. All in all, though, the book was amusing and interesting, and I have to say that I absolutely adore the ending. What a nice way to sum up the story!

Sarah Kilcourse dilettantechild — As acclaimed as Sedaris is as a humorist, I think he gets short shrift as an observer of the human condition; there's more of both tragedy and sweetness than immediately meets the eye. As an essayist he's a Twain for our times, though obviously lacking the grand fiction. This isn't his very best work; he's used up most of his best family/coming of age stories, and too much of his subject matter is "David Sedaris, famous world-traveling author."
