Synopsis

After a powerful wizard tears Elle’s soul apart and steals her memories, she’s locked in a house to rot. Her only remaining memory is of falling from the sky, though even that raises more questions than it answers. Upon her escape, she falls into a world that’s equal parts vicious and beautiful. Magic is everywhere, everyone is out for themselves, and every truth is accompanied by a lie. Her lack of memories grows maddening and painful. She’s positive that the key to recovering her memories is in the sky-castle from her dreams, but getting there will require magic she doesn’t have. Traversing an enchanted painting, stealing a sword from a dragon’s den, and outwitting a demon are only the beginning. And this time, she’s got more than freedom and memories on the line. 
Without magic, there is no survival.

Goodreads review by Abby

"A god? That's too bad. If you're a god, there's no one for you to pray to." I can only describe this book as a fantasy mystery where four chaotic individuals with varying personalities work together to get to the sky facing magical markets, dragons and demons along the way. Elle is the first person......more

This book was something else. Here are my thoughts: ⁕ The pacing was different from what I've read before. It had a unique style that felt slow-paced at the same time as fast-paced (I know, I don't quite get it either). ++ I loved the descriptions of magic use and the magic system in general. The depic......more
