I've loved a lot of Seanan McGuire books in the past, but this one might be my favorite to date. I really enjoyed that this book has a magic system with rules that the reader learns as the novel progresses and I adore Americana low fantasy. Ban sidhes who run diners, hitchhiking ghosts, and an appreciation for the parts of the US that exist between the cities made this a perfect read. I also have a car named Gary, which is a fun serendipity!
