The Magicians of Caprona | Diana Wynne Jones

Continuing my reread of this series with this book that I don‘t remember at all (other than that I didn‘t like it as a teen). It‘s a pretty quirky story packed full of Romeo and Juliet nods, cats, and an interesting sung magic system. This hardly has anything to do with Chrestomanci compared to the books collected in the first volume. #magic #cats #MultipleWorlds

My husband recently decided he needs more Diana Wynne Jones books in his life, so I'm revisiting some of my favorite high school reads with him. I definitely don't remember a lot of what happens in these books, so the reread has been super fun! #Magic #MultipleWorlds

I read this series in high school and absolutely loved it. Right now, I'm rereading it with my husband because now that I've introduced him to Diana Wynne Jones, he's obsessed. I loved this book just as much as an adult. There are a few parts that show their age, of course. The conclusion of the 9 girls situation is so characteristic of Diana's writing! 😂 #Fantasy #MultipleWorlds

Something about this book just didn't capture my interest. It's a fine book with an interesting premise, but nothing about it felt unique to itself. I might have also felt so-so on the characters.
This was one of my recent #Roll100 picks, though I don't remember why it was on my list! @PuddleJumper

This was a fun read. I can't imagine how frightening it would be to be the people selected as the "safety" for the children in traveling groups just in case everyone else died. The audio book was also really well done. #fantasy #ghost #parallelworlds #multipleworlds

I enjoyed this book, but not quite as much as I enjoyed the first in the series. It's still a great pick for fans of fantasy. It's also a fascinating exploration of fear, especially the anxiety parents experience over their children's safety. #fantasy #talkinganimal #parallelworlds #multipleworlds #innervoice #steampunk

I liked this one just as much as the first book. It's a vivid rollercoaster of a read, and provides a good look at generational trauma. #fantasy #magic #ghost #romance #multipleworlds #multiverse #dream #trauma #generationaltrauma #lgbtcharacter
