A writer goes missing and she leaves behind clues about her mysterious past.
That sentence doesn't even explain how bizarre this book is. But I think saying more than that would ruin the whole experience.
The thing with this book is that is not for everybody. I've read some mixed reviews about it, and it seems like there's no middle point: either you hate it or love it. And I totally understand why.

It's way darker and the characters are more messed up... and that's only the mystery.
We also have fairies.
Never in my whole life I expected a book like this to have fairies, but, hey, Camila Bruce made it and it works. The fairies add more depth to the plot and the characters. I don't think the book would have the same impact without them. Overall, for me, it was a good read.
I'm usually a slow reader when it comes to eBooks, so I planned to finish this in a couple of weeks at least. However, I read this in one sitting because it was so compulsive and I couldn't let it go. I just had to read one more page. When I finished, I wanted more of this story. That's my main reason why I didn't give this book five stars. I wanted another POV or an epilogue at the end, but I was disappointed. Nevertheless, I highly enjoyed the story, and I'd definitely read more books by Camila Bruce. Her books are right up my alley.
As I said before, this book is that is not for everybody, but it's worth a try. After all, you'll never know what you're missing unless you try.
I got this book through Netgalley, and I thank to publishers for providing me this copy. My review isn't influenced by this fact.
