The Wishing Game, by Meg Shaffer

The Wishing Game, by Meg Shaffer

The Wishing Game reminds me so much of the books and series I loved as a child: the ones that made me fall in love with reading, the ones I escaped into over and over. It has the whimsy and wordplay of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory (one of the author’s inspirations) without the nastiness that seemed both funny and disturbing to me even as a child. But I’m getting ahead of myself.

Sunday Post – 1/12/2024

We weathered the snow storm that hit the DMV region. I have been unpacking and settling back in, and keeping warm. My heart goes out to the people of Los Angeles, so many of whom are facing the total destruction of their homes, communities, and way of life.
