Magical and dark modern fairytale. I loved the world that Wilkinson created in this novel and I am so happy to know that this is only the first in a series. There is so much interwoven into this story. There is a great journey of self-discovery amidst the fantastical world, perfect for lovers of an Alice in Wonderland style tale. The characters are fun and flawed and the world is creepy and wonderfully weird. The storytelling is excellent and though there is a lot wrapped up in this story the pacing stays on point and kept propelling me deeper and deeper into a world that I couldn't get enough of. Excellent female protagonist, some great inclusion, and a bit of a disorienting feeling to the narrative. I really enjoyed the experience of this one and look forward to the sequel!
