Enchanting, but somehow gets lost in a predictable murder mystery that, at least for me, seemed entirely unnecessary when the rest of the book had such potential and gorgeous imagery. It's really kind of funny in its absurdity. Hair the color of cabbages? An adult teacher in the body of a child? It's tragic and sad and really (intentionally or not) darkly hilarious. Like a fairy tale. Five stars for the gorgeous descriptions and ideas, three stars for the unnecessary murders, four stars in total.
