book review -- The Magician's Assistant

I had this book recommended to me by someone whose taste in literature I trust, so I sought it out and read it, and I was not disappointed. Let me say first off that the subject matter of this book is not something I would ordinarily read or enjoy, but I was able to put that aside and really enjoy the storytelling. Ann Patchett is a brilliant writer; her characters live in a very rare way. I can't say too much about the book without starting to spoil the story; just try it yourself.
