I knew by 20% into the book that this one was going to break my heart and put it back together. And man, was I right! Add some ugly crying and happy laughing, and you pretty much know my experience with this story. This is such a unique and moving take on the nature of gods and monsters, on identity, purpose, responsibility, and finding your own way. All told through the journey of a bunch of kids, thrown into a labyrinth with no memory. A found family, if you will. But believe me, there is so much more to it. Every time I thought I knew where the story was going, something else happened and left me open-mouthed. Be aware, there are no light themes - there is a lot of drama and a lot of sad stuff happening. And still, what the story gives us is hope - and an answer to what the opposite of death is. @franceswhiteauthor had become an instant auto-read author since Voyage of the Damned, and here she did it again. What a journey! 5/5 stars. An absolute highlight for me. Thank you to @NetGalley and @htpbooks for the eARC! #TheBoneDoor #Bookstagram #NetGalley
