Among Others by Jo Walton

My rating: 5 of 5 stars


Although it won Hugo and Nebula awards, this is a book of magic realism rather than scifi or fantasy. it happens in everyday modern England and Wales, with a dash of fairies and magic.

The main character, a teenage girl, is someone I'd like to know, someone I could talk to about anything and everything for hours, regardless of the difference in our ages. And even if it didn't have plot and characters (which it does), it would be delightful for its descriptions and recommendations of scifi novels and novelists., many of which I now look forward to reading.
