The books are average. I read them all, I enjoyed them. The warm feelings of an 'orphan' finding friends and a new family combined with having a fun time in a magical setting carry the series. The actual writing doesn't amount to blasé. She built a world that seems fun. She built a world that falls apart with gentle pokes.
