Enchanted Glass
by Diana Wynne Jones
This gets a high nostalgia score even though the plot resolution/ending didn't make that much sense. The world was great, as were the characters. And there were some great ideas at work, even if they didn't quite grow to their full potential.
The twist at the end was unique, especially for a kids' book. I would have liked to see it developed a little more, though. So much gets left unexplored in this book.
I'm really going to miss DWJ.
