I've been told it's confusing before, so I'll at least be expecting it :P But Fire and Hemlock can be confusing too, and it's still my favourite of her books (and one of my all-time favs). I've just discovered your blog and will surely be coming back :D It seems that we have similar taste! I have this on my tbr pile and I plan to read it soon.

Have you ever read Fire and Hemlock? I don't think I will ever truly understand the end, even though it has been patiently explained to me several times.

There's a few more, I think, but I haven't read them yet. :D Oh, DWJ loves little twists at the end that mess with my mind. :D The best one I can think of is Archer’s Goon– it’s kinda like Hexwood in that there’s time blips and identity confusion.

Compared to you I've barely read any. And I didn't know she wrote other "travel/mind-messer-upper" novels. I guess I don't have a very good spectrum of how "weird" she can be and still pull it off haha Oh wow haha! Compared to you I’ve barely read any.

It's not that I don't appreciate the weirdness, just that it might not have been as well done as some of her other books featuring time travel/mind-messer-uppers.

Have you read any of her other work (ie. Howl's Moving Castle - a very unique one)? I love Diana Wynne Jones because she writes weird and unique stories. Have you read any of her other work (ie.
