This is an amazing book. It reminded me of "Far, Far, Away" by Tom McNeal, which is high praise for me, as that was one of my favorite books I read that year.

Triss wakes up after an accident, but nothing feels right. She doesn't really seem to remember who she is, her sister is afraid of her, and she's ravenously hungry. Also, nothing about her accident is clear. Can she figure out what happened to her, before everything in her life starts to unravel?

To tell you more about this story would be a mistake, as it is beautiful and comes together in such a magical way. Hardinge's writing is something to be savored, as she describes Triss's world. If you read Deva Fagan's review, that's a good summary of how I feel about this book.
