Forbidden to leave her island, Isabella dreams of the faraway lands her cartographer father once mapped.

on 16 June 2022This book is really not for me, is depressing in parts and is just hard going and the ending is not great, would not recommend.

This book is amazing. The tale is full of adventure and wonder with a brave girl named Isabella. Her father is a map maker who has ink in their blood. Great book for young adults who love fantasy.
