I haven’t updated for the last couple days, but one thing I want to say is the book has been hinting pretty heavily at 9/11 happening with multiple characters prophesying it and the very fact that the plot takes place in 1999–2001. It’s getting closer now and I’m unsure how well this book can handle it. Unless this is an alternate history where something different occurs. Still… a bold choice.

I’m going a little slowly through this, which I wish wasn’t the case because I’ve still got several more books lined up to read. A magician showed up in the book, so the “illusion” aspect of it is coming into focus. Also, the most recent character is a girl who tries on a bunch of different religions (because a lack of god made her feel “empty” 🙄) and falls in love with… Islam?? Weird final choice.

I picked this up at the library because I liked the cover. Also, the synopsis (it’s about a boy who was raised as a bird) was interesting. I was just going to add it to my WTRs but then I was like “screw it, I’m already here—why not just get it now?” So far I’m into it, although I haven’t taken down any notes. I don’t have the faintest inkling of where the story will go.
