As a rather sharp change from cyberpunk, the last book I read was E.D. Baker's The Frog Princess. Clearly this is a young adult book, so? I enjoy kid-lit, and you should too! The one was pretty cute, in a fairy-tale-gone-sideways way. Nothing terribly scary, but not imminently predictable the way many stories for kids are. Main character is a not-very-prim princess, who does a pretty good job through the story of not relying on the not-very-proper prince for her rescues, and gets several lessons in judging on appearances. I'll probably be passing this one on to my niece when she's up to reading chapter books with no pictures. Meanwhile, I've got the sequel in my to-read pile. :)
