Extract
I don’t speak to the other girls. I don’t look at them. The morning music is still being pumped through one of the speakers that line the halls and fills up what would otherwise be silence – violins and cellos and other instruments I can’t name weaving together.
I follow my roommates out of our dorm and into the narrow hallway. Single file, we trudge towards the communal bathroom and join the line of girls already waiting outside the door. Each of us carries an identical lumpy toiletry bag in one hand and a towel in the other. The same old, brown towel I was given seven years ago when I arrived here.
About the book
A dark and spectacular contemporary fantasy full of adventure.
Emily Emerson has the Grimm. A disease nobody wants.
Removed to a facility, she becomes property of the state, a pale shadow of her real self. Here she meets a boy, Emir, who tells her she’s not sick – she’s just different.
Only by dreaming, he says, can they break out of the world that’s keeping them imprisoned. And perhaps – make a better future . . .
- A story of friendship and a group of teens fighting for their right to exist.
- For fans of Beautiful Creatures.
