This story is about a girl named Neverfell who lives in the underground city of Caverna. Neverfell has a face like glass, because whatever mood she is in (happy, sad, nervous or angry) shows on her face. The people that are close to Neverfell have to wear a mask at all times. Neverfell is a girl who cannot remember what happened to her when she was younger, although lots of clues appear during the book.

I think you need to read the blurb of this book before choosing it, as it will help you understand the background of the story. It is a longer read than normal, to be exact there 487 pages. It took me two weeks and five days so it's a real commitment. But definitely worth it I think.

Nine out of ten.

Review by Segovia.
