I always find myself rereading books by Diana Wynne Jones. She’s been one of my favorite authors for years, and the fun, light-hearted whimsy of her fantasy worlds never fails to completely capture my imagination. If you’re still mourning the loss of the Harry Potter series (like Kendra!), pick up something by J.K. Rowling’s magical predecessor. You won’t be disappointed!
My personal favorite? Charmed Life, a novel about a boy called Cat who discovers that his nickname is more appropriate than he knows. Magic is as commonplace in his life as electricity is in ours. Cat starts the story feeling isolated and overshadowed, but ends up learning about himself and growing more confident in his abilities. So although his world may be super different from ours, his situation is something that we can all relate to, magical or not!
