Anyone who found that books were easier friends than people, who left their troubles for the world of science fiction and fantasy will love Mor. I love the ambiguity of this book, of what's going on, as well as the emotional reality. Truely beautiful.

20% Judy Blume, 80% diary of a boarding school girl who reads a lot and goes on about fairies and magic in an oblique sort of way. Fine writing and I read the whole thing, but that's about it.
