Zoey arrives at the Dellawisp, an old apartment building on a coastal South Carolina island, to escape her past. Its residents are an odd mix of neighbors, each with a private sorrow, and strange things happen there: small turquoise birds seem to follow people, and unspoken losses tie the tenants together. Sarah Addison Allen blends magical realism with a cozy, small-community mystery.
A comfortable choice for readers of gentle, magical women's fiction who like a found-family setting. If you want a slow, warm story with a touch of mystery, this suits you.
Inward-looking and escapist; an easy read.
Best for readers like The Escapist Adventurer. Which reader are you?
