Fledgling is set in the year 1900 in the Bavaria forest, and jumps straight into the action with Cassie finding a cherub who has blow into her bedroom window during a storm.
Hope does an amazing job of creating a gothic atmospheric setting with an unusual house built perching on a rock and the Bavaria forest. The sense of mystery is thick throughout the book, along with underlying tension and darkness.
Hope has created several interesting and quirky characters all with a layer of mystery and secrecy around them. With Cassie as our main character who has a distant and extravagant opera-singing mother and a taxidermist father.
The ending was quick to close but did take me by surprise with a quick turn I didn’t see coming, but also left us with a sense of mystery for what the future would hold for the characters.
The cover for this book is even more stunning in person and really got me interested in reading the story.
