A couple of chapters in and the beginning is very reminiscent of The Neverending Story... if the book was a Jumanji board and the shopkeeper was Yugi Mutou. I'm intrigued and creeped out at the same time, and I'm not already wanting to strangle the heroine yet... which is a rarity for most YA books I end up reading these days. It reminds me so much of the dark Gothic YA romances I'd read from the library as a teen!
