Ruby's delicate, powerful storytelling reveals profound, bewitching truths about the vast, sometimes cruel, sometimes loving, possibilities of human nature. Subtle and stunning. --ALA Booklist (starred review) Powerful plotting, masterful character development, and a unique narrative device set this work apart. Make room on the shelf next to Code Name Verity and The Book Thief. --School Library Journal (starred review) A numinous tale of love and restlessness and dark histories that rises like a tide till you're up to your neck in its magic. My very favorite kind of read. --Melissa Albert, New York Times bestselling author of The Hazel Wood A layered, empathetic examination of the ghosts inside all girls' lives, full of historical realism and timeless feeling. --Kirkus Reviews Haunting and hopeful in equal measure.--New York Times Book Review A beautiful and lyrical read that pushes against the boundaries of what we often think a young adult novel can contain. --BookPage
