I first encountered these books in middle school and was completely entranced. The frame story, of wandering through a library through the “professions” section and encountering “So You Want to be a Wizard”, was too wonderful. I searched for such a book myself, to no avail. I recently re-read this book, and like many young-adult books, it’s not quite as compelling as I remember. But as an inspirational story to open young minds to new ideas, with tones of self-reliance, responsibility, and the power of having a really good best friend, I can still whole-heartedly recommend it (and the whole series). The magic system is creative yet plausible, with a “scientific” feel (gosh, I want a temporospatial claudication!). Nitpick to everyone who describes this as some variant on Harry Potter: please remember that this book was written well before Harry burst onto the international scene. Certainly they are in the same genre, but please give original credit where it's due.

One of the reasons I wanted to read this book was the fact that the author if from my hometown, Fargo, ND. The other was the fact it was based on her life and things that happened when Rosie took over McCalls magazine. The were some amusing scenes in the book, but over all I was a little disapointed with it. I guess I expected more for all the hype I heard about it when I was released.

I thought this was amazing. I sat and read the whole story on my computer in a few hours. I love seeing the flip side of the twilight novel. It said on Stephanie Meyer's website that she had this story on hold indefinitely and I was not happy. Then it said that she is working on it and wants a hard bound copy to sit by Breaking Dawn, I feel the same way. At this moment I feel that I enjoyed Midnight Sun more than twilight but it could just be because it's new. I do feel that I relate to Edward more than Bella, not the monster stuff but the over thinking everything. So that's part. I just can't wait for the whole story. I want to see how he feels when he is apart from Bella as she travels to Phoenix. I enjoyed the glimpses into his time alone with Emmett and the justice for the guy in the alley. He's a good soul.
