My Name is Mina (Skellig, Prequel)My Name is Mina by David Almond

My rating: 5 of 5 stars

Shadows
Light
Moments when the words start to dance in your hand.
Witchcraft
A meditation on writing
A meditation on magic
Magic
Moments where the world, the word, the word-world just stops.
Crystal, clear, precise moments.
(Moments where you have to catch your breath and hold any more tears from falling)
Peace
Hope
Happiness
Joy, joy, joy

Perfection.
