"We'd had to be cut free of our mother's womb. Abby and I were fused, you see. But here's the real kicker; Abby had the magic, I didn't." Now adults, Makeda and Abby still share their childhood home. The surgery to separate the two girls left Makeda with what feels like an even worse deformity: no mojo. The daughters of a celestial demigod and a human woman, Makeda and Abby were raised by their magical father. Today, Makeda has decided it's high time to move out and make her own life. In Cheerful Rest, Makeda finds exactly what she's been looking for: an opportunity to live apart from Abby. But when her father goes missing, Makeda will have to discover her own talent if she's to have a hope of saving him...… (más)

4.5 stars. I loved the story and the world, but found parts a bit predictable so it lost half a star. Still, highly recommended. ( )

nice writing on the voice of the book, and on the characters. a very lively collection of demi-god relatives add a lot of colour to the Toronto setting. the actual plot seems a bit vague, though, and sometimes desultory. ( )

I really wanted to like this book, great mythology, interesting characters, but ultimately it just got too silly.
I felt like the author had to gloss over so much of the internal works of her universe to keep things she set in motion moving that it often barely made sense.
It's ok for characters to know more about the inner workings of their magic or mojo then you as a reader does, but not just because it's the only way to solve the plot mess you just made.
I think if she'd kept it simpler, it could have been great. As it is, I read the first two thirds in 2 days and the last third took me two weeks. ( )

This was such an odd story, it's hard to put it in a category. It seemed to weave between life and death, paranormal and the "juju" kind of magic, with a little sci-fi thrown in the mix. I'm not sure if the story wasn't well-decided on what it wanted to be, or it just wasn't presented in a way that made sense to me, I felt like I was struggling to get my bearings through most of the book. I did listen as an audiobook--it's possible that didn't help the process this time, so take my 3 stars with a grain of salt, you may like it better. ( )

I struggled on to about half-way through but honestly, it was so juvenile and shambolic I could not be bothered to finish it. ( )

Score! I said to the scruffy grey cat sitting on the building's loading dock. She'd never even think to look for me here!
