The Midnight Palace by Carlos Ruiz Zafón
4.0

Definitely my favorite of Zafón's YA books. I really loved the Chowbar Society and it's members, and Calcutta is a great setting for his sprawling stories and beautiful language.
That said... boy does the man have a puppet trauma :D The way he tells his stories is so gorgeous that I don't mind, but he does seem to tell variations of the same ones in all his books.
