A book with so much... muchness should not have been quite this cathartic, but this series has a habit of it despite that.

Cora enrolls herself in the Whitethorn Institute, afraid to sleep lest the Drowned Gods of the Moors take her in her sleep. At first despite the place it does seem to be helping, but the Institute has more than a little in common with troubled teen programs. This gives Cora a real chance to shine as a character.
