This book is absolutely stunning. From the very start Harrow's prose just gripped me - she was able to build these incredible sentences and paragraphs with beautiful language and still keep the story moving constantly. I flew through the story and just thought I wish I could have read this book at 12 or 13 years old - I would have been obsessed and probably written my own sequel just so I could keep the world alive.
The temerarius January is so dynamic and tough - I definitely want to be her friend. And I listened to this novel and was very impressed with the narrator - also named January!

HIGHLY recommend!
