From Little Stack
Nottingham, 1906. Marietta longs to be a ballerina but is torn between the life she wants, and the one her high society family expects her to have. On Christmas Eve, while preparing for her final performance, Marietta discovers Everwood, a magical world, hidden in the scenery built by a mysterious new neighbour. She is enchanted by this wondrous dreamworld but soon discovers that a dark magic exists beneath its glittering facade.
Luminous, magical and enchanting, Midnight in Everwood is a mesmerising dark fairytale that feels like a future Christmas classic. I read this over Christmas a few years ago and was totally spellbound. If you’re looking for a book to get lost in on a cold, winter’s day while snuggled under the blanket with a hot chocolate, then this is for you.
In the darkness of night, magic awaits…
Nottingham, 1906
Marietta Stelle longs to be a ballerina but, as Christmas draws nearer, her dancing days are numbered – she must marry and take up her place in society in the New Year. But, when a mysterious toymaker, Dr Drosselmeier, purchases a neighbouring townhouse, it heralds the arrival of magic and wonder in Marietta's life.
After Drosselmeier constructs an elaborate theatrical set for her final ballet performance on Christmas Eve, Marietta discovers it carries a magic all of its own – a magic darker than anyone could imagine. As the clock chimes midnight, Marietta finds herself transported from her family's ballroom to a frozen sugar palace, silent with secrets, in a forest of snow-topped fir trees. She must find a way to return home before she's trapped in Everwood's enchanting grip forever.
In the darkness of night, magic awaits and you will never forget what you find here…
