flying_monkeys: Because I could see that magic, close my eyes and touch it. All my senses were fully engaged. It's a rare book that uses smells and sounds with such clarity and power.

Spiegazioni
flying_monkeys: Because it's YA for the thinking teen (or adult). Time travel, an alternate universe, and some scary ideas of just how far social media and corporate sponsorship could go.
