A mysterious library book opens the door to a world of magic and danger in the first book in the beloved Young Wizards series.
Bullied by her classmates, Nita Callahan is miserable at school. So when she finds a mysterious book in the library that promises her the chance to become a wizard, she jumps at the opportunity to escape her unhappy reality. But taking the Wizard's Oath is no easy thing, and Nita soon finds herself paired with fellow wizard-in-training Kit Rodriguez on a dangerous mission. The only way to become a full wizard is to face the Lone Power, the being that created death and is the mortal enemy of all wizards. As Nita and Kit battle their way through a deadly alternate version of New York controlled by the Lone Power, they must rely on each other and their newfound wizarding skills to survive—and save the world from the Lone One's grasp.
"Stands between the works of Diana Wynne Jones … and Madeleine L'Engle. … An outstanding, original work."—The Horn Book

I have read this book in paperback, and enjoyed listening to it to prepare myself to listen to the new book Diane has out in the series.What other book might you compare So You Want to Be a Wizard to and why?
This book is commonly compared to Harry Potter in some aspects; however, the only common thing is magic. How Dianne explains how the magic works is worth the read.a must read

Thank you for this work. Thank you for offering something to a lost girl and teaching me to call everyone 'cousin'. Thanks for the wit, the wisdom. And thanks, most of all, for the image of a universe that has goodness in it.

What did you love best about So You Want to Be a Wizard?
You get immersed into the story right from the beginning as Nita is running from her bullies, jumping into the library, and proceeding to the 'Young Adults' section where this story unravels. This was a book I read when I was younger and had to run through it another time. Well worth it, too.What other book might you compare So You Want to Be a Wizard to and why?
The "Uglies" series is another well put together series that younger and older people alike can delve into. Both of these series really put your social awareness, or how you perceive social situations, through the ringer and make you rethink who we are as a humanity.What about Christina Moore’s performance did you like?
Ms. Moore's performance was pretty well acted out. I especially enjoyed her accent for Kit's persona. Very good.Did you have an extreme reaction to this book? Did it make you laugh or cry?
This read makes you laugh and cry, smile and furrow your brow, giggle and cringe all throughout (especially if you go on in the series). This story is very well constructed and you feel like you are a part of the adventure the whole way through.Re-read

This was amazingly well done. It's not Harry Potter. Not better, not worse. It's easily AS good though. Parents, be prepared to have to define a few words to your kids (the main antagonist is the anthropomorphic personification of entropy).
It gets better throughout the series as well. If you're not totally thrilled with this book, give the next few a chance as well. Once knit together, you'll find a rare gem.
I strongly recommend this series; I've purchased it in hardbound for when my children are old enough to appreciate it.
Exquisitely done.
