kayshaj 's review for:

The Changeling by Victor LaValle
5.0

This one hit all of my buttons, realistic fiction mixed with magical realism (yes, I am pretty sure that was a redundancy) along with references to fairy tales and mythology. And then add in a lot of reference to a Maurice Sendak book. Along with all of that, add simple elegant writing and very surprising and disturbing events. Hooked!

This book hits you on so many levels. It makes you think about racial issues, parenthood, parenthood and technology, relationships, trust. The list can go on and on. The books I love are not for everyone, but if you know you like what I do, you should definitely read it! Maybe starting today so I can talk to you about it!
