In the early 1900s, a young woman embarks on a fantastical journey of self-discovery after finding a mysterious book in this captivating and lyrical debut. In a sprawling mansion filled with peculiar treasures, January Scaller is a curiosity herself. As the ward of the wealthy Mr. Locke, she feels little different from the artifacts that decorate the halls: carefully maintained, largely ignored, and utterly out of place. Then she finds a strange book. A book that carries the scent of other worlds, and tells a tale of secret doors, of love, adventure and danger. Each page turn reveals impossible truths about the world and January discovers a story increasingly entwined with her own. Lush and richly imagined, a tale of impossible journeys, unforgettable love, and the enduring power of stories awaits in Alix E. Harrow's spellbinding debut--step inside and discover its magic.

good fantasy set in the late-19th and early-20th centuries submitted by csleh on June 28, 2020, 6:55pm This is a nicely paced book with imaginative settings. The characters are familiar sorts, so even the ones that aren't fully fleshed out are comfortable, like an old sweater. A perfect cozy read -- engaging, playful, and some good twists and turns.

This book was just great submitted by beckleystover on August 5, 2020, 11:38am one of the best books i've read in quite some time. the story itself was so unique - truly something totally unique to anyhting i've read before. as i approached the end, i wished there was more story to read - i wasn't ready for it to end!

Different submitted by KimB on June 16, 2022, 11:59pm This book was gorgeously written with unique ideas and interesting twists. It's currently one of my most recommended (to others) books.
