As is customary when I pick up a Harrow novel, I am swept up in comforting prose that masks the complexity of the human animal. To call this books characters loveable would be doing a diservice to the way they were written. That said, the house is most certainly a character of it's own. If you were a fan of The Thousand Doors of January and The Once and Future Witches, this should be right up your alley
