Silvia Moreno-Garcia can write characters like so few can. This book was such a different style from her more magical realism focused books, the telekinesis doesn’t really change the story much, but instead is a story in the vein of pride and prejudice and the bright young things. Even the villain is deliciously fun to hate, and the book will hold your heart hostage up until the very end.
