At nineteen, Polly has two sets of sometimes overlapping, sometimes conflicting memories, the real-life ones of school days and her parents' divorce, and the heroic adventure ones that began the day she accidentally gate-crashed a funeral and met the cellist Thomas Lynn.

Add a CommentA great read that builds fascinating, believable characters. The story comes to life, leaving you questioning the reality of life and what goes on behind.
To me this was a boring book. Most of it was about Polly's life with Thomas Lynn. It took me a long time to finish because I always got annoyed at Polly( she's so UGH!) and I couldn't get into the feel of the book. The ending is creative , I will admit, but too quick to take in. Don't let my comment change your mind about reading it though, if you think it sounds intresting, go for it! Not everyone has the same opinion!
There were a few parts that were hard to chew through, but overall this was an engaging read. The magic was so seamlessly woven into reality that the plot always had you guessing. Try it for yourself!
