The ten thousand doors of January

Summary: In the early 1900s, a young woman searches for her place in the world after finding a mysterious book in this captivating and lyrical debut. "A gorgeous, aching love letter to stories, storytellers and the doors they lead us through ... absolutely enchanting."--Christina Henry, national bestselling author of Lost Boys and Alice In a sprawling mansion filled with peculiar treasures, January Scaller is a curiosity herself. As the ward of the wealthy Mr. Locke, she feels little different from the artifacts that decorate the halls: carefully maintained, largely ignored, and utterly out of place. Then she finds a strange book. A book that carries the scent of other worlds, and tells a tale of secret doors, of love, adventure and danger. Each page turn reveals impossible truths about the world and January discovers a story increasingly entwined with her own. Early praise for The Ten Thousand Doors of January: "Many worlds, vanishing doors, mind-cracking magic: I clung to each page, searching for answers. This is one of the most unique works of fiction I've ever read!"-Tamora Pierce, New York Times bestselling author "A tantalizing quest through strange and beautiful places, and a love story that spans time, worlds, and magic. I couldn't put it down."-Peng Shepherd, critically acclaimed author of The Book of M.
