A Face Like Glass by Frances Hardinge

4.0

I find it hard to rate Francis Hardinge's books. Although they are YA and about young people they seem better read by adults. The writing is wonderful but the plots are dense and convoluted. This one is no different. I really loved the book myself but am wondering how many of the young people in my school would enjoy it. Her book The Lie Tree won the adult Costa but not the Carnegie and that shows my dilemma perfectly- where do you place her books?
