Such an excellent book, I’m sad it’s over but very happy to see the author has plans for two more in the series! The quality of the writing is excellent, the characters interesting and well developed, the story was unpredictable enough to keep me interested.
I really enjoyed the magical realism and it feels like a beautiful love letter to New York. So excellent!
