You know that tender, magical feeling when a book breaks your heart, gently picks up the pieces and then stitches it back up in a way that leaves you feeling utterly transformed by the experience?
This book did that, and more. I can't even begin to describe the emotions I'm feeling right now, but if I had to recommend just one book to you? It would be this one.
It's fiercely powerful, quietly joyful, and owns my heart completely.

Outstanding. I am completely enamoured with Jaclyn Moriarty's ability to write brilliantly charming books full of adventure and wonder, with a cast of characters that will live in my heart for a long, long time.
I have a new favourite author.
