THE WATCHMAKER OF FILIGREE STREET by NATASHA PULLEY
g u y s
I picked this book up a couple of days ago purely because a) I was in a Game of Thrones re-read rut and b) someone whose taste I trust recommended it to me, and I am SO GLAD that those things happened at the same time because otherwise I probably never would have bothered with this WEIRD, WHIMSICAL LITTLE BOOK, AND I NEVER WOULD HAVE KNOWN WHAT I WAS MISSING!!!
it’s impossible to be like ‘oh, if you liked so-and-so you’ll love this!’ or ‘it’s for fans of x, y and z!’ because it’s INDEFINABLE. (but I guess if you’re into lots of weirdly niche things – like the social history of Victorian England, or watchmaking, or old-timey physics, or the Japanese civil war in 1877, or all of those things in one book, with bonus Irish Republicanism and low key mind-blowing Stuff surrounding clairvoyance – then give it a read maybe.)
but if you like CLOCKWORK OCTOPI WHO STEAL PEOPLE’S SOCKS, or UPPITY LADY SCIENTISTS, or TEA, or ENDLESS POSSIBILITIES and SOULMATES, then you should absolutely check this book out, because it will warm your heart. it will melt your heart. it will roast your heart over an open flame. it will set your heart ablaze. a blackened husk will be all that is left of you and your heart. I cannot look directly at my watch, for I am burned.
