I just finished reading, THE MAGICAL MISPERCEPTION OF MERIDIAN, and can't stop smiling! :) I loved this story! It has everything: excellent characters, lots of action, rich details, conflict, friendship, romance, and a sprinkling of magic! Ms. Rogers created two very loveable, flawed characters who meet as kids: Jona (tomboy) and Lee (stutters around girls). A friendship develops straight away. The reality, however, is that Lee is royalty, and Jona, a commoner. The author throws them together, a...more
Like most women, my days are really full, so reading for pleasure is often relegated to the "someday when I get around to it" category. But once in a while a story comes out with a premise so intriguing I make time for it. The Magical Misperception of Meridian is one of those stories. I was fortunate enough to win a review copy, and I was so eager to read it I immediately downloaded it to my iphone. By doing this, I could read it during those "in between" moments - during my work breaks, when I'...more
Not only is Meridian a magical place, with lovely details in this book that will please early teens through YA (and adults who love the Harry Potter and Ursula LeGuin style fantasy realms), the Magical Misperception of Meridian has a wonderful heroine in Jona and a vulnerable hero in Lee. S.G. Rogers portrays their friendship in a sweet way -- and even throws in a great, unexpected twist at the end! No spoilers here, but I sure wish this book had been LONGER! I wanted to stay right there in the...more
I loved this short book by S. G. Rogers! The writing flowed smoothly as did the story line. It is a wonderful fairy tale book with a little bit of magic, a great friendship and a lot of fun! Jona and Lee have a great friendship and the author does a wonderful job developing it. I love the magical "mailboxes" and the letter writing between Jona and Lee! There is a great twist at the end that I LOVED! This is just a great "feel-good" book that will leave you feeling satisfied at the end. The book...more
I thoroughly enjoyed escaping into Meridian and Jona is my kind of heroine! This great escape from hum-drum reality brought to mind Disney's "Princess Diaries". The Magical Misperception of Meridian is a delightful new fairy tale that I'll read again just so I can return to Jona's world.
This is exactly the sort of story I wish I had to read at bedtime as a tween or teen. Sweet, magical and mind-bending at the end, it's a perfect setup for exciting dreamtime.
