Furthermore

by Tahereh Mafi

Colour and magic combine in this enchanting new middle grade fantasy from the bestselling author of the Shatter Me series.

Born as blank as canvas in a world brimming with colour and magic, Alice's pale skin and milk-white hair mark her as an outcast. Because, for the people of Ferenwood, colour and magic are one and the same. And since the disappearance of her beloved father, Alice is more determined than ever to prove herself and her own magical abilities.

To do so she'll have to travel into the mythical, dangerous land of Furthermore, with the help of a fiercely annoying boy named Oliver. But nothing in Furthermore is as it seems, and it will take all of Alice's wits to find her father and return him safely home.

DNF :(

I stood in line for this... had others stand in line for it. Needless to say I WANTED it and WANTED to love it. But there was a major disconnect for me and I'm finally marking what actually happened months ago. DNF. I'll still cherish the signature and the beautiful cover, but unfortunately I wasn't able to connect with the MC or make sense of the world. I'll still pick up Tahereh Mafi's future work and give it a shot though- her writing continues to be lovely.
