Patricia Wrede is one of my favorite authors. I first discovered her, when I found her Enchanted Forest series. Who could not help loving quirky fairytales? In this book, Sorcery and Cecelia or The Enchanted Chocolate Pot again we meet a quirky place, an alternate reality of England where magic is accepted to the point their is an Office of Magic.
This book, began as a letter game with Caroline Stevermer, is a series of letters between two cousins, who find themselves entangled in a struggle over an Enchanted Chocolate Pot, while one is at home in the country and they other is entering her first Season in London. Beautifully written, the characters feel real to us, down to the point where they comment on each other's lying habits, and clumsiness as if they are normal things and not elements that help to stir the plot along. So, read this book, and it's sequels and enjoy the adventures of Cecy and Kate.
