I had no idea what this was about...I just picked it up
because I like the cover
and honestly...
I liked the title, too.

I imagined it to be about a little girl
in a make believe world of
cotton candy, carnival horses and
a battle between good and evil
with frogs that turned into princes
and mushrooms that made you taller.

But...that's not what it was about.
At all.

Which was totally ok!
Because what it was about was so fast paced
and terrifying and I couldn't turn the pages
fast enough....

I'm not going to tell you what it's about.

This is not that kind of review.

This is an "I frigging loved this book"
kind of review.

Oh. But I will say that I loved Lincoln.
I loved how she captured his voice
and all the facets of a mother's love...
how it can cover pride and panic and exasperation and
worry and fear and gratitude all in any number of breaths...

This was a good one.
