The Cabinet of Wonders, Marie Rutkoski
This book has a fittingly complex and disturbing villain.
The thing they don’t tell you when you read and love a particular book is that you will spend the rest of your life struggling between reading other books, and rereading your faves.
“Just because you don’t know something doesn’t mean it’s not true.”
— Marie Rutkoski, The Cabinet of Wonders
“It’s easier to break something than create it.”
— Marie Rutkoski, The Cabinet of Wonders
Finished: The Cabinet of Wonders
Date: June 29 (ha, an actual date this time!)
Genre: Children’s Literature
Things You’ll Think About: Traveling, science, art, magic, political intrigue. What does it mean to be loyal to your family, and to your friends? How much are you willing to go through, how much are you willing to take for a loved one? What does it mean to go too far in the name of progress? How far are you willing to go for an invention, an idea, a goal?

“Magnets are very affectionate, but they can be stubborn if you offend them, so building the ladder was really just a case of making friends.”
— Mikal Kronos explains how he made a magnetic hovering ladder, The Cabinet of Wonders.
“Some days are just born bad. You know the type. The kind you want to sweep into your palm like spilled salt and toss over your left shoulder, hoping that if you don’t look back nothing worse will happen.”
— Marie Rutkoski, The Celestial Globe
Petra: ugh I’m so tired, I haven’t slept in two days.
Astro: before last year I hadn’t slept in my entire life, and I’m not complaining.
