It sounds wonderful. Suzanne, I just had to say - love Bel Canto. It's incredible. I've not read Water for Elephants although I hear great things about it. Have you read any Sarah Addison Allen?

The mention of a magician reminds me of The Magician's Assitant by Ann Patchett, one of my favorite authors. I'll be interested to read Ivy's take on a magician's turn at love. To answer your question on our own magical reading experiences, I was going to continue with my Ann Patchett theme by mentioning Bel Canto, one of my favorite books. However, when it comes to magical....Water for Elephants by Sara Gruen is one of the most magical novels I've read in recent memory. Wonderful follow up to your very original interview with Ivy.
