Josef Sueno josefsueno — Eff is a Thirteenth Child, and while she has more or less overcome the assumption she is an avatar of misfortune as a result, she is still working at smoothing out her magical talents. As she finishes up her schooling as a child her brother Lan, a fortuitous seventh son of a seventh son, urges her to consider higher schooling in the east. But Eff's attention turns ever westward, to the wild lands beyond the barrier. She takes on a position as assistant to the menagerie attached to the school she just graduated from, and from there, is brought along on a survey expedition through the lands unprotected by the barrier. As the survey stumbles upon magical animals in places they should not be as well as a puzzling collection of what look to be petrified animals, Lan's schooling comes to a stop in a horrifying tragedy. Across the Great Barrier is the second book in the Frontier Magic series, and is a fascinating mix of Little House on the Prairie and Harry Potter. I am particularly fond of magic being used for mundane things, so the way Wrede has written magic being utilized by folks trying to make their way on the frontier pulled in my attention, and the edge of danger that life style and the world Wrede has built with its steam dragons, mirror bugs, and Columbian Sphinxes kept me frantically turning pages long past when I should have been sleeping. Beyond that, everything I can ever remember enjoying about being a child is represented, in some way, in these books. The little experiences and triumphs, even the flat failures and disappointments- things I can, as an adult look back at with a crooked grin. These are books shelved in the children's section, but are by no means books just for kids. Enjoyable, fun, highly recommended.

Sunhwa Kwon kkwonssun — Hrmmmmmm...well, I was very keen to finally read a Dave Eggers novel, after hearing much praise by several friends. Maybe I should've started with Staggering Work Of A... cuz I wasn't too excited with this book. I am a bit unsure how I feel about Eggers. Sometimes, if in the right mood, I kinda like his writing style. Other times I can't stand it and want to throw the book down (and do). This book started off well - I was into it, I thought it was hip & weird & tangential in a good way. Then if kinda flattened out. At one point I hadn't read from it on over a week, not a good sign. And then I told myself- ok , just finish Velocity so you can move on to another book, dammit! Still...there were certain beautifully crafted sentences and certain exceptionally well-captured feelings and moments. I just don't know if I'll read him again - well, yes, i probably will. Maybe this wasnt his best. any Eggers fans have any feedback??

Huy Nguyễn huuhuynguy95b5 — Quick and pleasantly predictable read. Lead to a good experience for my first audio book.
