What a weird, creepy, and darkly twisty little beginning! Kind of like that cover. It kind of seems to half take place in a nightmare land and also half in reality. Makes you wonder if it's maybe also a discussion on postpartum depression and how it affects new mothers. Lauren seems to have very little support from either her husband, family, or nursing staff. Also, those damn nurses and midwives are assholes! How dare they treat her that way... I don't understand what that's actually about, but hope to find out. Anyway, this tale is changelings and faeries is absolutely interesting, but still strange. The writing is amazing and strikes straight to the heart of so many issues! This is definitely one I can see myself enjoying.
