This book is a wonderfully geeky look at an even geekier subject: the human mind. More specifically, how does our memory work? Are there REALLY people out there with photographic memories? And how do I build a memory palace?! Fantastic read!
Marr continues her tales of Faerie that she introduced in Wicked Lovely, with this story of Leslie. Leslie is attracted to an eerily beautiful tattoo and has to have it, convinced it is a tangible symbol of changes she desperately craves for her own life. The tattoo does bring change - not the kind she dreamed of, but something sinister, drawing her deeper and deeper into the faerie world.
