Stella, eleven, gets her dreamed-of adventure when something she should not have seen in the damp, dull hotel where she lives with three dreadful aunts on a cliff above Withering-by-Sea sends her on the run from stage magician Professor Starke and his thugs, eluding danger, making new friends, and facing questions about herself.

I want to read the next one! This was a fun and well-written story, even if it took some time to grab me. The simple illustrations littered throughout the book are charming, it's fun to see some of the characters and objects the way the author imagined them. Why can't we have occasional illustrations in adult novels?
I would have liked to see more of the hotel and the strange people that live there, and I'm excited to see how Stella finds out exactly what she is, and where she came from.
