Sometimes there are books that you know are just not for you. I really can do without a juvenile Harry Potter, especially one that is going to run in a series of an indeterminate number. I love Ian Irvine’s adult fantasy fiction even though they are bricks.But if you love Harry Potter and can’t get enough of books about magic this book could be for you. I think I will enjoy my next book-The December boys- a whole lot more (
