Title: Illumination Night
Author: Alice Hoffman
Thoughts: I sure will be sad when I run out of Alice Hoffman books. The thing is, I don't love all of them. Some stories I just can't get behind. Illumination Night wasn't one of those. It was a delicate story with just enough of the magical realism I so enjoy in her books. Sometimes you feel as though you're reading a grown-up fairy tale. Sure her usual themes of infidelity and rebellious teenagehood were present, and sometimes I get sick of those, but I really enjoyed this book. It was a lovely tonic while I recuperated from the flu!
