![]() ![]() So once the grid went up, the realization that there was now only the glass between me and the sidewalk, that I was free to see, close up and whole, so many things I’d seen before only as corners and edges, made me so excited that for a moment I nearly forgot about the Sun and his kindness to us. Unlike most AFs, unlike Rosa, I’d always longed to see more of the outside – and to see it in all its detail. I should confess here that for me, there’d always been another reason for wanting to be in the window which had nothing to do with the Sun’s nourishment or being chosen. And once Manager touched the switch and the grid climbed up all the way, we became covered in dazzling light. I knew then that whatever the answer to Rosa’s question, we were about to get all the nourish-ment we would need for some time to come. We only needed to stretch our feet a little to place them within its warmth. But once we’d seated ourselves on the Striped Sofa, I saw there was a narrow gap running along the bottom of the grid – Manager must have raised it a little when checking every-thing was ready for us – and the Sun’s light was making a bright rectangle that came up onto the platform and finished in a straight line just in front of us. The store, of course, had yet to open, and I thought the grid would be fully down. ![]() Then our turn finally came, and Rosa and I stepped into the window one morning, making sure not to knock over any of the display the way the pair before us had done the previous week. ![]() ![]() ![]() By showing the determination of Adraa and Jatin to save their people, while a slow-burn romance plays out, Swift shows the balance between unexpected love and duty, and the strength it takes to fight for the kingdoms they were born to lead. ![]() ![]() Swift’s magic system is refreshing and new, mixing the ideas of magic and religion together.
