I can't wait to hear what you think about DATSAB, and When We Wake sounds really interesting!<br /><br />I like the phrase "Contemporary with a Twist." Magical Realism seems to cover so many things that I'm never sure I'm using it correctly anyway. My friend got me Challenger Deep for Christmas, so that's on my TBR this year too!

I can't believe writers have spent DECADES creating alternate realities, and none of them has ever wondered "But what happens when they go back home?" before LOL.<br /><br />As I said, these are all old-ish books...I can't see you reading any of them any time soon, since you are a librarian now! which means youRoberta R.https://www.blogger.com/profile/18228840429799100354noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2381281230448720689.post-41722389625108305282018-01-22T02:23:27.602+01:002018-01-22T02:23:27.602+01:00I loved Challenger Deep.

I think I really love the idea behind so much that any problems I have with the characters is kind of overshadowed. And I really enjoy A.S.
