What could be in common between the most popular guy at school and a quiet, modest girl from a devout family? What is it like when you’re sixteen and your mom and dad decide to confiscate your phone for every weekend—and even turn off the internet? And the only thing in your closet is the hated frilly blouse?
Quinn is handsome, smart, and successful—the parents’ pride.
Matilda, meanwhile, is his hated neighbor, a “white crow,” and a problematic child in the family. She devours fantasy books, loves TV series, and in general is a little strange. But when, one night, fantastic creatures attack Quinn and then he starts seeing things that just can’t exist, Matilda no longer seems so odd to him.
Who can you trust in a world where statues suddenly start reading poems with awful rhymes, and animated skulls smile and make faces at you? Of course, the girl from the house next door—who knows everything about fantastical worlds.
Quinn hadn’t planned to involve Matilda in a magical adventure full of dangers. And, even more so, to fall madly in love with her. But as everyone knows, not everything always goes according to plan…
