Chronicle In Pursuance Of Books Magonia (Magonia #1)
#1 New York Times bestseller Maria Dahvana Headley’s soaring sky fantasy Magonia is now in paperback!Since she was a baby, Aza Ray Boyle has suffered from a mysterious lung disease that makes it ever harder for her to breathe, to speak—to live. So when Aza catches a glimpse of a ship in the sky, her family chalks it up to a cruel side effect of her medication. But Aza doesn’t think this is a hallucination. She can hear someone on the ship calling her name.
Only her best friend, Jason, listens. Jason, who’s always been there. Jason, for whom she might have more-than-friendly feelings. But before Aza can consider that thrilling idea, something goes terribly wrong. Aza is lost to our world—and found by another. Magonia.
Above the clouds, in a land of trading ships, Aza is not the weak and dying thing she was. In Magonia, she can breathe for the first time. Better, she has immense power—but as she navigates her new life, she discovers that war between Magonia and Earth is coming. In Aza’s hands lies the fate of the whole of humanity—including the boy who loves her. Where do her loyalties lie?

The main character's voice is grating on my nerves. So much that I couldn't even get more than 17 pages into this story. While this has a great cover and premise, I just can't keep reading this twaddle. Perhaps if there was a different POV or something I would be able to enjoy it, but it's like listening to a loud tween try too hard for attention.Quick review for a quick read. Dude, I didn't know what I was getting myself into when I picked up Maria Dahvana Headley's "Magonia". Suffice to say, I'm quite impressed by it. I really didn't expect it to be this emotionally invested, intense, and imaginative read. Totally ended up enjoying the journey it took me on and it's one of those stories that will stick out in my mind for a long time to come. I mean, the closest of a comparison that I can make of "Magonia" to anything I've seen or read
Review on its way. Whenever I start writing it, though. Which sadly, I wouldn't hold my breathe.Check out Kimi's review. She says everything I'm thinking a lot more eloquently :DPost-reading:Dude my body was so not ready for the crap-fest. I don't even know what to say. Just one thing. How can we kill trees to print this? Seriously, this is not a book I'd compromise my air supply for. Nuh-uh. Pre-reading:Buddyread with my dear Damon thief, Kimanna, that's Kimi to all you other people!
More reviews like this one on The Social Potato.If you're going to ask me to describe Magonia in one word, that word would be charming. It was elegant, magical and absolutely captivating.Reading this book was like floating on a magical, puffy, pink cloud. While eating fairy dust and watching shooting stars. That's how alluring this book was. The only other time I've felt this way was while watching the Stardust movie!While Aza wasn't physically strong, personality-wise, she was feisty and sassy,
See more reviews at YA Midnight ReadsIt's been 3.5 weeks since I've read Magonia and since then I have bought this book for 2 people, recommended it to all of my friends, given away a copy as a Twitter giveaway and broken my book buying ban (that only managed to last 3 days) to buy myself the hardcover of the book. So I guess it's safe to say that I really really like this book.They weren't kidding when they said that Maria Dahvana Headley's writing is comparable to the works of Neil Gaiman.
Aza Ray Boyle can't breathe. It seems like she has always been sick- inexplicably short of breath and weak.This continuous illness has made her always feel different from the people around her. But, perhaps, there are stranger and more exotic reasons why she is different. Ones that Aza can't even imagine...Jason is Aza's dearest friend. They are so close that they almost speak their own language.He realizes there is more to Aza than meets the eye. How will Jason handle it when he discovers the
