I'm slowly becoming obsessed with this series. You can't blame me once you realize how relaxing and comforting the words in these pages are. It gives me the physical equivalent of taking a warm bath. The characters, the sprinkling of magical realism, the struggles, and the interactions within, are a kind of magic. I love it when a book transports me somewhere else, and I forget about reality for a while. I tried to savor the book, but it was in vain as I got caught up in what was happening and finished it fast. I'm going to try to keep the magic of this one for a while before moving to the next book in the series.
