Ivy and Seb’s grandmother, Sylvie, has a mysterious past. She lost her memory long ago in a car accident and remembers nothing about her life prior to that night. Then one day, Sylvie ends up in hospital and Ivy and Seb get sucked into the world of the Uncommoners.
This is an assured debut, with full and confident world-building. Ivy is a very appealing protagonist and the adventure is a lot of fun, but also surprisingly scary in parts! I was on the edge of my seat and absolutely raced through this book. Thankfully, it’s the start of a new series, so I’ll have more Ivy and Seb to sate me in the future.
