One of my favorite books of 2009 is now in paperback!

Ender's Battle School has relocated to Hogwarts and Narnia-obsessed Holden Caulfield is one of the new star pupils. Need I say more...?

Quentin Coldwater is an incredibly smart and unhappy young man in his senior year of high school. He has spent his entire life feeling like he doesn't belong, wishing he were somewhere else, so when he finds out that magic is real and he is one of those rare people that can learn to wield it.... well, he leaps at the opportunity. The problem is, though, that magic does nothing to cure ailments of the soul, and despite getting so many of the wondrous, fantastic chances he has wished for all his life, Quentin's biggest problem isn't a giant demon or an evil wizard, but his own inability to recognize happiness. Grossman borrows from a number of well-established fantasy franchises, sure, but this is something original- the ultimate flip side of the gold coin, if you will. I wish I could go back to the past and read this again for the first time.

Description

Family Guy meets Election in this hilarious young adult debut!

Twelve-year-old Oliver Watson's got the IQ of a grilled cheese sandwich. Or so everyone in Omaha thinks. In reality, Oliver's a mad evil genius on his way to world domination, and he's used his great brain to make himself the third-richest person on earth! Then Oliver's father--and archnemesis--makes a crack about the upcoming middle school election, and Oliver takes it as a personal challenge. He'll run, and he'll win! Turns out, though, that overthrowing foreign dictators is actually way easier than getting kids to like you. . . Can this evil genius win the class presidency and keep his true identity a secret, all in time to impress his dad?
