I really loved the voice in this story. I felt like I could really step into Ivy's shoes. She felt hardened without being unlikable, without being somehow immune to the wonder around her. Her relationship with her sister was so layered and complex. I was really intrigued by the familiarity and strangeness between them.
And there were so many great viscerally descriptive scenes especially with the medical procedures. Truly tickled my fancy. And I loved the very ending.
It did feel like a first mystery novel though. I didn't feel like leads were developed quite enough.
