This is not the kind of story I normally read but I have to say I really enjoyed it. I loved the combination of real and fantastical elements—I didn’t even get that there were actual vampires in Quincie’s world until a few chapters in, and then Leitich Smith incorporates them in so well that you totally accept it as the way things are. I may be a bit biased as I spent five years of my early childhood in Austin, so I loved the use of the real setting with the magical characters. I also read Cynthia’s blog every day, which I’m sure adds to my fondness towards this story.
