“But if monsters could look like humans, and humans could look like monsters, how could anyone ever really be sure that the right people stood on the outside of all those cages?”
So much praise for this one. Absolutely brilliant
and twisted take on a fantasy world. If you've ever read The Night Circus by
Erin Morgenstern, this has much of the same visual vibe but the story is much
darker. There is a lot of disturbing parts to get through in this book but it
is so engaging.
Delilah Marlow can still remember her first trip
to Metzger's Menagerie as a child on a school trip but never did she think that
one day she would be part of their show. When she has an emotional and physical
transformation while witnessing a terrible act, Delilah becomes the property of
the menagerie. With no explanation as to why or how it occurred, there is no
one to defend her.
There is more shock when Delilah learns she has
been living a secret life or rather, someone else's life all these years.
Delilah doesn’t exist. However she isn't the only one apart of the show that
has become a professional at hiding their secrets.
With its incredibly imaginative writing and
sometimes gory sequences, Menagerie very quickly draws you into its world.
