Suzanne Lazear debuts with this amazing and unique story of Noli, a girl with too much spunk and spitfire. She lives in an alternate California, ripe with Steampunk gadgets and technology. Sent to a home for girls with "problems", only to find out that the world is a much different place than she ever expected when she disappears and finds herself in a different world with a mysterious stranger.
I loved the mixing of Steampunk and Faerie!! Suzanne really captivates you with Noli's story and leaves you hanging at the end, begging for the next in the series! The characters come to life as the twists and turns of this book keep you hooked from start to finish!
