Used. Paperback. Step into a chillingly clever celestial archive where floating arks shatter, social graces are weaponized, and an awkward, scarf-wearing archivist finds herself thrust into a treacherous betrothal. Christelle Dabos crafts a brilliantly frosty fantasy debut that marries the domestic politics of Jane Austen with the perilous, clockwork whimsy of a high-stakes Ghibli film. Our heroine Ophelia possesses the uncanny knack of reading the history of objects and people through a mere touch, a talent she'll desperately need to survive her freezing new home among deceptive nobility. Trust me, you'll want to pack heavy wools before you tumble into this deliciously dizzying labyrinth of lies and lingering magic.
