Review: Fun World, Sweet Romance
Rating: 4 out of 5

My favorite thing about S. G. Rogers books are the worlds she builds! Minna and the Valentine sets before us a world with elements of modern life with fun, free-wheeling magic and dragon riding tossed in. It's a really fresh setting for this sweet YAish romance. I would have loved to see this story developed into a full-blown novel! The romance moved a little quickly for me, but I enjoyed the light, fun tone of the piece. Mr. Rhule, the dead librarian, was a real treat as was old wizard Thaddeus Bartholomew and his alternate reality counterpart! I would love to see Minna and Evan back for more adventures together! If you're tired of gloomy dystopian fiction, you will be glad you brightened your day with Minna and the Valentine!!
