Nevermoor: The Trials of Morrigan Crow
by Jessica Townsend
Morrigan Crow was born on the unluckiest day of the year. Being born on Eventide means being cursed, blamed when things go wrong, and doomed to die on her eleventh birthday. On the night of her birthday, a mysterious and magical stranger, Jupiter North, comes to Crow Manor and whisks Morrigan to Nevermoor. Jupiter has selected Morrigan as his patron to compete for a spot in the Wunderous Society. Those vying for a spot must compete in a series of trials, the last showing their knack. The problem is, Morrigan doesn’t know what her knack is and why Jupiter wants to help her.
If you are a fan of fantasy books, you should give this one a try. This is the first in a series but ends on an excellent conclusion if you don’t want to read the rest. The author has created a fun world, and readers will enjoy envisioning it for themselves. The characters are likable, and as it’s a fantasy include some interesting ones such as a giant talking cat. Readers may notice similarities to other fantasy stories, but this brilliantly done book can hold its own.
