The Jar that Holds the Universe
"The Jar That Holds the Universe" captures the unforgettable quirks and adventures of Quinn Parker, an eleven-year-old girl who was sent as a newborn to Earth from a hyperspace called Alkaa. Growing up as an Earthling in Toronto, Quinn has never known where she is really from, why she looks strikingly different from everyone else, and why she has a unique red marking on her left arm. Exactly three days before her twelfth birthday, Quinn begins to experience strange incidents which lead her to a thrilling journey back to Alkaa. She quickly learns that the universe as we know it is contained in a jar and is kept as an important mystical artifact that keeps the land of Alkaa alive. The problems begin when the jar is stolen by Vrad the Dark Lord and is at risk to be destroyed in the Dark Forest. With time running out, the fate of our universe and Alkaa is in Quinn's hands, as only she is welcome to enter the forest. Will the Alkaanians accept Quinn as one of their own? Can she locate the jar and save us all? An adventure is about to begin!

The suspense, seriously, the suspense!! I finished this book in just 1.5 days because I couldn't stop reading. The book moves quickly, and C.S. Tjandra gives you all the details you need to get sucked into the story. The characters felt so relatable and the world-building is seriously on point! I can't wait for the next book in the series! C.S. Tjandra, hurry up with book number two!!!
