I don't know what I expected when I read Unelmoija, the Dreamshifter.  Probably another coming-of-age, young adult story.  Instead, I was treated to an endearing, rich tale, expertly written, with many twists and surprises that made me finish it in a single weekend, unable to put it down.  Boca's writing is sharp and witty, much like Amy, her lovable heroine.  It's hard to believe this is her debut novel, first in the series.I loved the clearly defined characters, and particularly how she avoided using a cliched "good vs. bad" approach to them.  Her nuanced descriptions add much to the story, as does her constant mentions of food that reminded me of Camilleri's books.I'm now off to buy the next book in the series, the Mindshifter...
