Blurb/Synopsis:
Most people believe the best way to forget someone is to throw them down a well. Or lock them in a room with eight keys, or bury them at a crossroad in the thirteenth hour. But they’re wrong. The best way to forget someone is for them never to have existed in the first place.

Madame Marisol’s Unreality House was where you brought people to make that happen.”

When Tuesday wakes from sleep for the first time at sixteen, she opens her eyes to a world filled with wonder – and peril. Left with only a letter from the person she once was, Tuesday sets out to discover her past with the help of her charming and self-serving guide, Quintalion.

Along the way she runs into one-legged mercenaries, flying cities, airships, and a blind assistant librarian. But danger lurks amidst the steam. The leader of the merciless Daybreakers is hunting her, convinced that she killed the only woman he ever loved. Tuesday will need all her wits about her to survive long enough to find out who she is and her connection with the mysterious Book of Days: a book that holds untold power…

Review

The Book of Days was amazing! I just finished it up tonight while I had some spare time, and I've been sucked into it for an hour or so. When I was reading it, my imagination was just running wild with each character, and I want more. It's so different from anything that I've ever read before, and I definitely recommend for any young adult, and anyone who is looking for a story that will leave you wanting more with each chapter. Tuesday is a new favorite character of mine, and I only wish it had a few more chapters, or maybe a sequel.
