"I knew Ry Cooder's stuff, and I knew of Ali Farka Touré. I love 'world music', and I particularly love African and Moroccan-inspired music. It's my kind of go-to Sunday morning record. It calms me down. There's just something really magical about it. It was also the opening music for my first ever solo gig."

"This book has fascinated me since I was a child. I’m always dipping into it and finding new things. Some of his Anglocentric conclusions date horribly, but the material gathered gives a magical insight into the people that have populated our planet and the rituals we observe. The illustrated edition was a later discovery and it’s an ethnographic treat."

They have been calling this "Water for Elephants meets The Night Circus." Since I've never read either of those books, I could enjoy it for what it is - historical fiction, woman's murder mystery with a touch of magical realism. You can read my review of this novel here. https://tcl-bookreviews.com/2015/03/10/illusions-and-elusions/

Middle grade book that explores the magical world and how good and evil are viewed. It is well written and both authors did a good job about blending the voice. As I haven't read Cassandra Clare and a really long time since I've read Holly Blake i can't say which style they lean toward, if either.
