Harrow's previous book The Ten Thousand Doors of January is one of my all-time favourites so I knew this one was going to be great. And it is - the hype has been well deserved. It's a history-laden story with suffragists, trans rep, feminism and witchcraft - it's quite an empowering read. I can already tell this will be on my 2021 favourites list.
