4.0

I’m always blown away by Claire North’s writing. She has a very distinct style all her own and I love it so much. Where does she come up with her ideas for books? Because they’re spectacular.

The Sudden Appearance of Hope is kind of like reversed short term memory loss. Instead of a person that quickly forgets everything, what if there was a person that was quickly forgotten by everyone else? Would she be a pretty awesome thief? You bet.

Claire North is also simply brilliant. She has this vast well of knowledge about *everything* and she manages to weave it seamlessly into her stories. It’s one of my favorite things about her novels.
