“Imagining what they might do and not actually having to do it.”
“Everything she had ever wanted when she was fifteen. Right here. She thought it should probably have made her feel happy, instead of abruptly unreal. Disconnected—depersonalized. Like she was happening to someone else.”
“Poetry is for the desperate, and for people who have grown old enough to have something to say.”
“I will always be measuring the distance between myself and a person who remained in the heart of the world; between the person I would have been had I stayed and the person I have become.”

Funny, charming, and totally unique with fascinating and effortless world building. It held me captive and delivered twists, joys, and sorrows.
It's a bit of a challenge, because it won't hold your hand. If you can let go of the need to know everything and have things spelled out for you and just immerse yourself, then you're in for a huge treat. Can't wait for the sequel. What a journey.
For fans of The Locked Tomb series, Master of Djinn (Dead Djinn Universe), Light From Uncommon Stars, and the Wayfarer series.
