For my next book, I'm thinking of writing a fantasy novel that makes use of "magic mirrors" (haven't thought of a better name for them yet). These are mirrors that are made in pairs, where each mirror of the pair shows whatever the other one is reflecting. Think of it as the fantasy equivalent of a video phone, except that each mirror can communicate only with the mirror it's paired with. (So if one of the pair gets broken, the other one is useless.)
What I'd like to know is any books that use mirrors like these as a major part of the plot or setting. It can be a book where a mirror can communicate with any mirror, as readers probably won't make that distinction. I expect readers to say I copied the idea from one of those books (even though I haven't read them). I just want to be sure I'm not copying any of the other stuff in the books, as most of the uses of mirrors like these are probably quite obvious.
Suggested category: Home & Garden > Cleaning & Laundry. (I'm afraid this is the best laugh I've had all day...)
