I think you've got the idea. The only one I'm not sure about on your list is Dodgers because it sounds like it's more focused on the characters and Coming of Age, but I could be wrong.

Me too! My favorites/favourites were Mallory Towers and the Magic Faraway Tree. Also the Wishing Chair. I'm conflicted over my spelling - can't decide which linguistic identity to go with. :)

Technically, it is another world though, since it's not Earth. I'd say other planets count.

118012 I read First Test by Tamora Pierce, part of the beloved Tortall world.

118012 I'm pretty close to the same spot. I've not been as committed to this as I would like. But I am thankful that I'm reading an ebook - I can imagine how heavy it would be otherwise!

118012 Yes, I'd say the magic being a main focus makes it both Fantasy and Sci Fi, which can count for this challenge, especially if Goodreads has Fantasy as one of the top genres.

118012 Would Magic Bites work for this, Renee? I know it's not actually an insect, but insects bite?

Kathy, looking at your 'to read' shelf, I think The Summer Wives would be a good choice.

118012 I think there will be, Rosemarie. Probably Renee just hasn't had time to post it yet.

118012 I'm looking forward to some lighter reads this month in this genre. Not sure what I'll end up choosing yet, but there are plenty of options!
