28/50 (5/50):The Girl with Glass Feet by Ali Shaw 155 (334) days remaining Pages: 287 Total pages in challenge: 13,378 (2,098) “Strange things are happening on the remote and snowbound archipelago of St. Hauda’s Land. Unusual winged creatures flit around icy bogland, albino animals hide themselves in the snow-glazed woods, and Ida Maclaird is slowly turning into glass. Ida is an outsider in these parts, a mainlander who has visited the islands only once before. Yet during that one fateful visit the glass transformation began to take hold, and now she has returned in search of a cure. Midas Crook is a young loner who has lived on the islands his entire life. When he meets Ida, something about her sad, defiant spirit pierces his emotional defenses. As Midas helps Ida come to terms with her affliction, she gradually unpicks the knots of his heart. Love must be paid in precious hours and, as the glass encroaches, time is slipping away fast. Will they find a way to stave off the spread of the glass?” -Dust Jacket
