I found this a bit indulgent yet repetitive, and saw the ending coming. Good premise, a school for children who had dropped into other worlds and dumped back in the real world. Some underdeveloped characters that I think I would have enjoyed getting to know more in a novel-length work, but this is a novella. (Nebula Award nominee for novella.) #NebulaAward

chosen from #NebulaAward suggested 2017 reading list- So, this book worked for me but I might not recommend it to everyone. The prose is gorgeous but repetitive and heavy handed too. I didn't want to put it down, it felt like slipping into a dream. The Indian folklore elements also worked to give it a fresh and new feeling in this overly saturated sub-genre, & I loved reading a mashup retelling of tales I've not yet read. And yay for a standalone!
