I found this quite fitting to read in January. 😆 I loved the back-and-forth between January’s perspective and the magical book that tells an exciting story. I do think the book dragged on a bit at times, but I found myself interested in what path January was going to take in order to find her way home. The writing, like the cover, is very ~magical~ and flowery and it gives the reader quite the adventure to follow. Also, there is a dog. 🐶 
 
The book is about a young woman named January who was adopted by a rich, white man that collects treasures for a living. January finds a book amongst his treasures and is exposed to a world of doors that lead to other worlds. Perhaps these doors will help her find where she came from…
