Trade Review
"Expert worldbuilding and fully ­realized, likable characters make this a refreshingly different adventure. A gentle touch of romance adds to the drama. Fans of The Hazel Wood, Inkheart, and other books about books will find much to love here." — School Library Journal "Exquisitely rendered and splendidly bizarre. Imaginative and enthralling." — Kirkus Reviews "This literary tale twists into an adventure filled with fantasy and horror that leads readers to a satisfying and very interesting end." — Booklist "Roux’s sense of place is vivid, and Moira’s escapist romance, Lovecraftian horror elements, and the fangirl-tinged levity of the protagonists’ third-person voices create a meta tale that’s successfully imbued with an air of dread and paranoia." — Publishers Weekly
