First up I have to say that I have already read book three in this series and that is what prompted me to come back and read books 1 and 2.  Peter Nogel is an awesome writer with a real talent for making the characters come alive - I feel I know Alicia and her grandmother as my closest friends, the writer is honestly that talented. This books sets up the series - you are made aware of mystery, dreams and a hint of the unusual set in characters that are totally believable.  I don't know what spell this author included in his book, but I am happily spellbound and off to read book 2. Highly recommended to anyone who wants to escape the bus trip to work, the lunch time rush or the bedlam in their own household for just a little while :)
