Sleep No More by Seanan McGuire

5.0

I don't think a book long alternate universe of the Worst Possible End for all of our main characters was originally in Seanan's plans for this series overall, but man, how fucking awesome is it as a premise to go and write a spell-generated alternate universe for your main character and take the worst possible route for her development and existence in the world (because FUCK Titania) and then write her fighting herself out of it, however unknowingly? If nothing else, this book is going to seal for you that Titania is going to be our biggest bad here, and I'm admittedly mildly terrified of what is going to end up coming further down the route for this series with her as her our ultimate villain. We also get an idea of how the transition happened thanks to a novella in back that focuses on Raysel as all of this happens. Also long term interested to see how a major point we find out about in the back of the book plays out. (Being as vague as possible because again, major stakes raising again here.) In summary: seventeen books in and I still fucking love this series, let's goooooooooo.
