"But home is meant to be a choice."
With it's excellent world building revolving around the themes of finding one's home & oneself, and life & death, Gallant takes you between dimensions as you grow fond of the main character, Olivia. I find its story to be quite similar to The Secret Garden at some points, except with a darker & more fantastical tone. Overall, Gallant was an exciting and heartfelt read.

This was the third VE Schwab book I've read and she is quickly becoming one of my slfavorite authors. The way she writes is so imersive that you get lost in the pages and the story. This one was a quick read and not as challenging as some of her others but I still really enjoying every page and the artwork to go with it.
