The Girl with Glass Feet: A Novel by Ali Shaw
If there is one niggle I have about “The Girl with Glass Feet” is that its interesting cast of characters is not fully developed outside the main heroes and to a large extent Carl, while the novel rushes a bit towards its inevitable end. Another fifty [...]
