Winterhouse

There are some very typical tropes of the genre, an orphan who is extra special, relatives she lives with are awful, some magic, etc. I don't think I will ever get tired of those! There were some new ideas as well. The Book, the family tree, and the inventor were fun new additions. It was a little darker than I expected, but it is still very much in the juvenile group. And it has left some interesting options for the next book, which I will be picking up!
