LibraryCin: I'm not always a fan of fantasy, but I've found I prefer YA or urban fantasy. I have read a few by de Lint, but have chosen only this one for this list.

LibraryCin: Tough topic, but was done very well and (if I'm remembering correctly), fairly lightheartedly, in this novel. Came to my attention via CBC Canada Reads a few years ago.
