The Cracks in the Kingdom by Jaclyn Moriarty
5.0
Madeleine and Elliott are communicating again through the cracks, this time trying to save the royal Cello family, most of whom has disappeared into the World.
Such a wonderfully romantic book, intense with Moriarty's skill at analogy, simile, and description that drips off the pages. How can you not fall in love with something like this: "His ankle protested like an angry coach, then the shouting settled down to an irritable mutter." Or this: "He hadn't known voices could run soft palms across your juddering soul." Exquisite imagery, enough to immerse you in their worlds, totally.
I hope Moriarty is not done with Elliott and Madeleine.
