ellevreads 's review for:
The Ten Thousand Doors of January
by Alix E. Harrow
This was a beautiful YA fantasy. It was innocent, but didn't feel childish.
January is a young girl of mixed race, living as a ward in her guardian Mr. Lockes home. Her father is only semi present, he often travels collecting rare artifacts to be sold. Their relationship is strained, she longs for quality time with her father and wishes she could go explore with him.
She is gifted a book which changes her life and opens her horizons. She learns about other worlds and her ability to find them.
This book is filled with adventure, it's a coming of age and we are finding ourselves and family. I loved the setting and the diverse characters.
It kind of reminded me of A Wrinkle In Time.
