Middlegame by Seanan McGuire

I have no idea how to describe this book in order to do it justice. This is a story about alchemy and choices and stories - but it's also about what it means to be a person, even if one was created to be the incarnation of an intangible concept.

This book is simultaneously confusing and exhilarating as it masterfully plays with evocative and beautiful prose. I could only sit back and read in awe as the story unfolded and timelines intersected - immediately after finishing, I dived back in to see how everything fit together like an intricate puzzle box.

If you want a dark fantasy that draws you in and breaks your heart even as it lifts you up, or you're simply interested in reading something new, something incredible - please, PLEASE pick up Middlegame
