Critics Review

Praise for Ava Reid’s novels:

A Study in Drowning:

A love letter to stories – and to everyone silenced or forgotten in their retelling.Allison Saft

A wonderfully written, tense and moving novel that offers its audience an endlessly readable mix of historical fiction, gothic mystery and fantasy romance that will draw you in again and again.CultureFly

As merciless as a rising tide and as beguiling as a fairy’s bargain.Melissa Albert

A masterclass in pacing, characterisation and tension, with a beautiful meditation on stories and who gets to have an authorial voice. ― The Nerd Daily

Praise for A Theory of Dreaming:

Rarely before has a sequel ever felt so entirely necessary … A true dark academia fairy tale, combining magic, mystery and mythology with literature, politics and intertextuality to craft a haunting story of authorship, identity and love. ― CultureFly

A deftly woven mystery, brimming with lyrical writing and compelling characters who will steal your heart. – Rebecca Ross, bestselling author of Divine Rivals

We’ve been counting down the days ever since until we can find ourselves reunited with Effy and Preston ― Cosmopolitan
