Another great read from McGuire. 

I do wish there had been a little more exploration into Regan’s feelings about her body. For one of the pivotal themes of the plot, it seemed a little glossed over. 

There was one scene that really baffled me, as there always seems to be in a Wayward Children book. At one point Regan was tied up, with her 'wrists' tied together 'in front of her', yet she had 'no use of her hands'. This made absolutely no sense. There’s plenty you can do with your hands if your wrists are tied together – a point McGuire then makes when Regan manages to open a door latch WITH HER HANDS. So why she didn’t at least try to undo the rope around her ankle with her hands, rather than just shuffling her feet around, I’ll never know. This is definitely something that should have been picked up by the editor.
