This was a really lovely read. Take the characters are extremely well written and very complex. The story follows a young woman who is discovering her own powers and also finding her way forward in a life where she has had too little control.  There are all sorts of lessons about trust and friendship and family woven into this sometimes spooky story and I enjoyed every page.
