'Everyone should read Frances Hardinge. Everyone. Right now.' Patrick NessA breathtaking adventure story, set in reimagined eighteenth-century England. As the realm struggles to maintain an uneasy peace after years of cival war and tyranny, a twelve-year-old orphan and her loyal companion, a grumpy goose, are about to become the unlikely heroes of a radical revolution. Mosca Mye is on the run, heading for the city of Mandelion. There she finds herself living by her wits among cut-throat highwaymen, spies and smugglers. With peril at every turn, Mosca uncovers a dark plot to terrorize the people of Mandelion, and soon merry mayhem leads to murder . . . With an unforgettable cast of characters and an inspiring message at its heart - sometimes the power of words can change the world!

Current reading and enjoying it much more than The Lie Tree, though that was a decent enough read.

Hardinge's debut novel has all the ingredients of a mad scientist's formula or a rogue wizard's spell - it's chaotic, enchanting, absurd, heart-warming, and everything in between. It's clear she had fun writing it and I certainly had fun reading it. A solid ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

alysonimagines Frances Hardinge has razor-sharp wit and a quirky sense of humor. I enjoyed this book. And I *really* liked The Lie Tree, which is darker than this one but has a quiet yet very cunning heroine.

Anyone else excited for World Book Day? I just ordered all of these releases for this year! 10 books for £13, couldn't not! ❤

TrishB Bargain ❤️👍🏻 6y
laurieluna @TrishB I know! Looking forward to opening it with the toddler. Was surprised to find Fly by Night included, as well as An Abundance of Katherines. 6y
JillR World Book Day currently causing huge issues and even tears in our house - kids can‘t decide what characters to dress up as, it‘s causing drama! 🙈 6y
laurieluna @JillR oh no! Mine aren't in school yet for the school dress up days, but I can imagine my eldest is going to be a right Diva about it. He's so fussy, and has many favourite characters already! You have until the 1st of March, still plenty of time. 6y
JillR @miralunasbooknook the main problem is my daughter thinks she has to look EXACTLY like the character, even down to hair colour! 6y

Mehso-so

I enjoyed aspects of this book, but I got the distinct impression that the author didn't really care whether or not the plot was comprehensible. It was very funny at parts, but maddeningly slow at others. I'm pretty happy that I only paid $3 for it, considering how uneven it was for me.

No, YOU'VE got terrible impulse control and got yourself a second copy of this AMAZING gem of a book, by an extremely underrated & magnificent author because of how heart-stoppingly gorgeous the cover is.

Have you no shame?
