Lost Magic | E. J. Matter

Beyond the reality of this world, in another realm, were two kingdoms intertwined by love, curiosity, and greed. Each powerful kingdom was gifted with something special, one magic, the other knowledge. One day the differences that had been celebrated tore them apart, and magic was cast out, leaving the futures of both kingdoms in the hands of fate. The magic waits for the one who will come back and awaken it. The one who possesses magic and knowledge, who only has to find the courage in themselves to bring back the wonder…

For months, college student Ellery Faidman had been plagued by dreams that were like a gateway to another world. Every morning she awoke to realize that the world she visited was becoming as real as anything else around her. The dreams followed her throughout the day, and thoughts of them never seemed to end. Especially thoughts of the one person she sought out most as she walked those mystical dreamlands, the man who stirred something inside her and brought chaos to her ordered life. She would often wake to find that there was no longer peace, even in dreaming.

When her foothold on reality magically loosens, she ends up in that world of dreams. And he is there. The man who had inhabited so many dreams. She felt as tethered to him as she had the dreams themselves. But is that all that is tethering her to that world, or is it something more?

Although her life as she knew it had been completely and irrevocably changed from the moment she woke up in that strange dreamworld, a part of her never felt more at home, more real. Yet, her path may lead her to an end that isn't the happily ever after that is so often sought after, even if it is more real than anything ever before.

The Glass Castle: A Memoir by Jeannette Walls

The Glass Castle is a remarkable memoir of resilience and redemption, and a revelatory look into a family at once deeply dysfunctional and uniquely vibrant. When sober, Jeannette’s brilliant and charismatic father captured his children’s imagination, teaching them physics, geology, and how to embrace life fearlessly. But when he drank, he was dishonest and destructive. Her mother was a free spirit who abhorred the idea of domesticity and didn’t want the responsibility of raising a family. The Walls children learned to take care of themselves. They fed, clothed, and protected one another, and eventually found their way to New York. Their parents followed them, choosing to be homeless even as their children prospered. The Glass Castle is truly astonishing—a memoir permeated by the intense love of a peculiar but loyal family.
