Being a teenager is hard enough when you've spent your whole life being told that your dad suffered from hallucinations and you might have inherited the same mental illness. When Jo's grandmother dies she leaved her house to Jo. Her mother wants her to sell it immediately and evict the strange collection of tenants. When they visit, there is clearly something more going on. Through a relatable protagonist readers are drawn into a deliciously creepy and detailed world where human work to live peacefully with their fairy neighbors and a girl who has always felt out of place discovers where she belongs.
Not really much positive to say. The characters were annoying, the writing was off, and I just couldn't engage in the story.
This was a very slow angst teenager adventure.
From inheriting a house that her fathers adopted mother gave her.
Becomes an evil creature guard.
She lets them out ‘accidentally’ and the faerie steal a baby. Turns out she feels guilty…
And decided to take the inheritance and keep the gate guarded.
Would not read again.
But if she goes into the faerie world, I would read that.
