Book: Magic or Madness by Justine Larbalestier
The first in a trilogy, this book sets up the "rules" of the magic in this world. Very interesting, although I thought the characters were rather 2-dimensional in some places. I will definitely read the rest of the series (when I'm done with my school books).

January Book #1
Book: The Door in the Wall by Marguerite de Angeli
A very old book that won the Newberry (it might have been the first winner). A very cute innocuous tale about triumphing no matter what your physical limitations are.
