Books read in November 2015
New:
1. The Marvels by Brian Selznick
2. Euphoria by Lily King
3. The Fame Thief by Timothy Hallinan
4. Career of Evil by Robert Galbraith (a.k.a. J.K. Rowling)
I don't know any of his other work. I just put this one on my library list because I saw it in Mabel's Fables while shopping for Fairy Goddaughter's birthday present, and it was the most magical-looking book I've ever seen. But it's too advanced for Fairy Goddaughter (even with her precocious taste) and was far too long to read in the store, so I had to read it myself.

Ooo, Brian Selznick! Have you read Wonderstruck and the Invention of Huge Cabret? Is this book in the same style?

I just read The Marvels. I had a few minor issues but I really enjoyed it.
* Hugo. Not Huge. Could be an amusing typo.
