I'm fairly certain this is the first book I've read by this author, and it was any indication of the quality of the rest of her work, I can't wait to start reading more of it. The story was beautifully told, the setting was so vividly written I could see it in my head as I read, and I was really invested in the characters even when I didn't necessarily like all of them all that well. I loved the subtle paranormal aspect of the story and was genuinely surprised when the ending was revealed. This was one of the more memorable reads I've picked up so far this year and I definitely recommend it!
