It might just be that I'm a sucker for these sorts of worlds. Also, the fact that it centers around CREATIVITY has me intrigued. We're STILL squabbling over whether creativity and talent is more nature or more nurture, so it would be interesting to see how this book (series?) chose to tackle that.<br /><br />(Also, major cover lust. Just sayin'.)<br /><br />Thank you for bringing this book to my attention! It honestly wasn't on my radar at all. <3<br /><br />- LexieThe Honest Bookclubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11459426023919815702noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6907235505822471522.post-70739809290907693212016-07-16T11:55:26.395-04:002016-07-16T11:55:26.395-04:00Woah, this sounds really unique premise-wise but I...Woah, this sounds really unique premise-wise but I'm worried about the quick-fixes and unanswered questions you mentioned.
