The Waverley's have always been a little strange. They know things that they have no way of knowing and they can do things that other people can't do. Claire and Sydney are just two in a long line of Waverley's and they are trying to find their happy ending.
I thought that this story was really interesting. The characters were amazingly written. The depth was amazing and the conflicts were super interesting. I did think that the book was too short for the development of all the characters, however. There were too many characters that all developed in some distinct way for how long the book was. I still thought the book was really good but I thought some of the characters changed too fast for how stuck in their ways they seemed.
The fantasy element was really interesting and added some depth to the characters.
Overall, a really fun fantasy book with really interesting discussions about loneliness, abandonment, abuse, family, and marital issues.
