The remarkable fiction of Alice Hoffman and Jodi Picoult blend elements of magical realism with coming of age to create powerful stories that will capture your heart.
Alice Hoffman spins lyrical stories of love, friendship, and betrayal Start with the apocalyptic, Green Angel the survival story of 15 yr old Green. I sobbed through the end of this short YA.
Blackbird House, the tale of a Cape Cod farmhouse and all of the people who moved through it. Of all of Hoffman's stories, this is one of my favorites.
Incantation, a Jewish account of Spain during the Middle Ages,
The Foretelling a mesmorizing coming-of-age fantasy centered around a girl destined to become queen of the Amazons.
Jodi Picoult had written several books not to be missed. Begin with:
The Probable Future a magical story of gifted women of the Sparrow family and the gifts each of them posses.
Sob your eyes out with My Sister's Keeper
or go ghost hunting with Second Glance a novel that gives everyone a second chance a redemption in 1930's paranormal Vermont.
