I love A.S. King more and more with each book I read. Her books are always emotional and though provoking. I will never stop screaming about how well she uses magical elements in her books either. King explored grief, loss, the cycle of abuse, friendship, fatherhood, and so many other things. She expertly wove all of this together too. There were a few things I really loved. One was the additional POVs. The character choices were great and they were employed just enough to make an impact. I also loved watching the relationship between Vera and her dad evolve. From what we saw and what information was relayed to us by Vera and her dad, it was obvious there was a lot of love and affection, but they had obstacles to overcome. It was great to see them working through it.
Overall: Another incredible book from King, which moved me in many ways.
