Synopsis
Books whisper to Beatrix Alba. But they aren’t the reason she has never fit in. Bullied at home and school, she keeps a secret—a power of violence and darkness.
When the spell that keeps her hidden fails, she’s catapulted into the Zweeshen, a realm where all tales live, and her dream of meeting her favorite characters comes true. But wishes are tricky, and behind its wonder and whimsy, the Zweeshen is under attack. A character is burning bookworlds in pursuit of a weapon to rule both stories and storytellers. To succeed, he needs a riddle in Beatrix's keeping.
Now he’s hunting her down.
Joining forces with William, a cursed conjurer, Beatrix must face an enemy who knows her every weakness in a realm where witches play with time, Egyptian gods roam, and Regency heroines lead covert operations. And with her darkness as the only weapon, she may have to sacrifice everything to save a world that rejects her.

Les personnages sont bien caractérisés. On s’y attache très vite. Il y a une petite romance « slow-burn », mais elle n’est pas prédominante. La seule partie qui ne m’a pas complètement convaincue, c’est la fin. Je l’ai trouvée un peu rapide. Cependant, j’ai hâte de retrouver Béatrix et William dans le deuxième tome.
Un roman original, captivant et plein de magie. L’autrice prend le temps d’entrer dans les détails, surtout dans la première partie du roman, afin de bien mettre en place l’univers, mais le rythme du récit est assez soutenu. Il n’y a pas des longueurs et on se laisse emporter par l’histoire dès les premières pages.
