This book was incredible--the kind that sucks you in, consumes you until the very last page, and sticks with you long after you've finished reading.

“You’re different.” Different. And there it was. All her life Barrie had been on the receiving end of different. Even once she’d learned to disguise the Watson gift, she’d still been the daughter of a woman who stood at the window and glared at people on the street from behind a curtain. The godd...
