I loved this book I really did see why it was compared to Night Circus and Hazelwood the story was well written I loved the darkness of it the ending was great too. I loved the characters especially Clem and Phelan I loved the romance between them and how he was so much different than what Clem perceived they just fit so well together. I loved Clem for her want to get what was taken from her for there to be more to it than she believed I loved her strong character so very much. I really loved the plot it starts with Clem and her Father being magicians that fight nightmares it became so much more a tale of tragedy and loss with many good things throughout and a pretty happy ending this book was amazing.
