"“Of shapes transformed to bodies strange” — Ovid’s theme is Shakespeare in a nutshell. As a theater fanatic, I discovered Ovid in my 40s when I wrote my PhD thesis on Renaissance Tragicomedy. For me, the root of drama and language is the invisible made visible in the shape-changing of sex, love, life and death. Not to mention food."

Couldn't put it down!
Absolutely loved it, it's like a fantasy teen version of Oceans 11 (a film I love). The character were well rounded and you couldn't help but root for these people who were seen a trash and throw aways. Inej is so strong and jasper was brilliant with the one liners. Would definitely recommend this to ..... well, to everyone!

This book made me seriously uncomfortable throughout reading it. I did give consideration to not finishing it but I'm glad I did. If you have a lot of true empathy, like me, you'll find yourself second guessing your humanity with how much you root for the demon and want to punch the 15-year-old in the face. Fair warning.
