Fascinating book about a teenage girl who tries to control her life by controlling her gender identity. Sad, and very sweet.

The Magician is the second book in Michael Scott's The secrets of the immortal Nicholas Flamel series and continues the adventures of Nicholas and Pernell Flamel as they seek to protect and train Josh and Sophie Newman, two teenage twins that are inadvertently pulled into a conflict between the forces of good and evil. Scott draws from numerous diverse cultural mythologies from throughout the ages to create an intriguing, interwoven world in which some mythological creatures and figures are hidden, while others walk among mankind in plain sight. At the head of the forces of good and evil are "The Elders" and "Dark Elders", each of whom have a handful of "Humani" (humans) that serve them; some of which who have done so in exchange for immortality. That bestowal though comes at a price! The novel focuses on those serving The Elders, attempting to thwart The Dark Elders and their minions as they plot and move to enslave humanity and return the planet back to its primeval past, where the Dark Elders once ruled with impunity. Although the storyline is predictable at times, the energy of the story doesn't let up which results in a good read. To my surprise I found myself really enjoying the character development of one of The Dark Elders servants (who shall go nameless to prevent a spoiler). The third book in the series is The Sorceress which I look forward to reading. I'd give The Magician three and a half stars but since half stars are not possible I'll give it four since I found the book better than its predecessor.

The Dud Avocado follows the adventures of one Sally Jay Gorce, an aspiring young American actress as she tries her best to live in the Paris of the late 1950s. In some ways, it's a shockingly modern book for those of us who are used to thinking of the 50s as being a very repressed and conservative decade, while in others it is most definitely antiquated. The dialogue in particular seems particularly odd; the idiosyncracies of American speech at that time are so unusual that it, at times, makes the novel seem strangely like a pastiche for all that it is a contemporary work. The humour and charm of the book, therefore, lies mostly not in the dialogue, but in the narrative of the finely drawn protagonist, Sally Jay. Any such subtlety or charm is sadly lacking in the other characters, though, and the prose is not really good enough to make up for their shortcomings. A nice example of its era, but not something I think I'll be coming back to.

The topic seems narrow--an pedogical study of early education in one country--but its implications are vast. It describes how children learn critical thinking and empathy/compassion, the two traits that (it seems to me) best serve our world. NOTE: The author is simply describing Japanese education, not comparing it to that anywhere else. But I will mention that measurements of Japanese students in various subjects indicate high-level comprehension. Key points: 1) Preschool is play. Children play indoors, outdoors in the mud, supervised or unsupervised; this is punctuated by brief, highly structured formalities. There are also longer sessions of "reflection", wherein the teacher leads a discussion of that day's incidents, eliciting students' observations and ideas for problem-solving. The main goal of preschool is helping kids to enjoy and listen to each other. Teachers do not generally scold or punish students. 2) Elementary school continues the theme of community-building and reflection (now including both social and academic topics). Students make up their own classroom rules, after the teacher has let them "bump up against each other" for a few weeks, in order to feel the need for order. 3) By placing social goals AHEAD of academic goals, teachers help students to enjoy school and feel comfortable discussing complex ideas. A teacher might spend 10 minutes getting the kids emotionally "hooked" into a lesson before actually doing academic work--and so, being invested, the kids learn deeply. 4) Teachers do not use rewards and punishments (sticker charts, national exams, etc.) The emphasis is on building a child's bonds with classmates and helping him to internalize values. It works. In conclusion: If we want our future leaders to be both wise and kind, we need to make sure that every child is well educated.
Classic J.A. Jance and the best Ali Reynolds book in the series so far. Very entertaining, a great read.

In the rather niche genre of urban fiction, Tyrell was a book I greedily snatched up. It's got pretty much everything you'd expect of a book about a black teen growing up in poverty. A pretty good read, all things considered, but perhaps a little on the long side, and dragged a little towards the end.

I refuse to read any more Nicholas Sparks books. He has embraced the motto 'tis better to have loved and lost than never to have loved at all, which is not a bad thing, but I'm tired of sad endings to love stories.
