T. Kingfisher is such a good visual writer, I've read "What Moves the Dead" as well, and they are both incredibly immersing, which is why I'm so sad to give this book such a low rating. The ending felt weird with
Gran Mae the Rose Monster, The Underground Children, Gail and Hermes being angel/vulture/witches
, too many twists that I felt were unnecessary. I don't think Kingfisher knows how to write endings.
