Strange the Dreamer
by Laini Taylor
Some writers pull a full-formed, wildly imaginative world out of thin air. In the case of Strange the Dreamer, that's where it stays - and where it belongs.
Lazlo is a nobody from nowhere - and so begins every YA novel ever. It's where Lazlo goes that makes Strange the Dreamer one of the standout books I've read this year. It's not perfect, but it's fearless.
Unpopular opinion: I don't think Strange the Dreamer needs a sequel. It ended well, and with the kind of closure that lets you imagine the world rolls on just as vividly when you stop reading. There will, of course, be a second book. And it'll probably make me eat these words. But it felt over at the end, and pushing it to another installment feels like the first stretch in hundreds of pages of incomparable story.
