I'm not a fan of sci-fi, but this one is clever and witty.

Abdullah, a young carpet seller, lives in his small stall in the bazaar of Zhanzib. A disappointment to his deceased father, he daydreams himself another life, in which he is really a lost prince from a distant land destined to marry a princess. He is content with his simple life and these daydreams, when a stranger sells him a flying carpet. In his sleep, the carpet carried Abdullah off to the gardens of a beautiful woman. He falls in love with the girl, but she is carried off in the night by a giant djinn, thus beginning the carpet seller's adventures. He is a kind and clever adventurer, who uses his wits and exceedingly polite manners, rather than physical strength, to escape a number of scrapes. Castle in the Air is an amusing fairy tale full of the kind of interesting characters on Diana Wynne Jones could write, including a charming criminal, an grumpy yet lovable cook, good and bad djinns, a wicked genie, evil family relations, wizards, witches, shape shifting cats, and a multitude of intelligent and strong minded princesses. I especially like the princesses, who are not idling away in their tower, but actively making plans to enact their own escape. It's an excellent companion to Howl's Moving Castle.

A wholey different book. A young boy is "raised" by ghosts. It is interesting and bizarre at the same time. Definitely glad I read this book!

A truly fantastic book - couldn't put it down. Took a few chapters to get into it but Niffenegger's time-transcending love is hypnotic, painful, deep, and beautiful.
This book is currently out of print at the time I am writing this, which is a shame. It's not what I tend to expect from a Newbery Medal winner, but the vivacious story and solid characters make this a good volume, and an interesting portrayal of the Navajo way of life. This book might not come to mind for most people when thinking about the best Newbery books ever written, but I think that good would definitely be served if Waterless Mountain were put back into print, and read by a larger portion of today's readers.

Note: this one isn't the edition I read (Signet Classic, 1965), but Goodreads doesn't seem to have that one among its covers. My first time through. Really good in places, especially the beginning and whenever the focus is on Renfield, one of the great characters in English literature. Really boring and melodramatic in other places. Anticlimactic. Not as gothic as I'd hoped. Worth reading but expect occasional slogs.
