A striking examination of power, privilege, and choice in a limited world makes Trelease a new voice to watch.” - Booklist “An immersive, glittering debut that intriguingly blends history and fantasy. Fans of substantial historical romance as well as fantasy will be thoroughly enchanted.” - The Bulletin

The period detail is exquisite, with Camille’s family situation and the inclusion of the problems surrounding the development of the hot-air balloon (Camille falls for an aeronaut) enabling readers to see what daily life was like for various classes of people as well as what new technologies were on the horizon. “Set against the burgeoning throes of revolution, this immersive drama makes brilliant use of its conceit, suggesting that the decadent opulence of the French nobility was maintained by a fragile illusion that depended on the abject sorrow and blood of the French people. A must-have.” - School Library Journal, starred review “Romance and fantasy readers will enjoy the magic realism, ruse and tension of Camille's double identity, authentic historical references, and Camille's daring, passionate spirit. I can think of no more satisfying way to fly across the years and enjoy a gilded view of Paris as it never was but could have been, with a little magic.” - NPR (A Best Book of the Year) Praise for All That Glitters (previously published as Enchantée): “Diverse characters, a compelling plot, romantic tension, and Camille’s internal conflict with her own magic powers fuel this intriguing story that will resonate with fantasy and historical fiction fans.” - School Library Journal Definitely recommended for a book club read.” - YA Books Central

“Enchanting, lyrical, and fierce, Everything That Burns is a captivating YA historical fantasy with thought-provoking themes. If she can discover who she truly is before vengeful forces unmask her, she may still win this deadly game of revolution. In this new Paris where allegiances shift and violence erupts, the answers Camille seeks set her on a perilous path, one that may cost her the boy she loves-even her life. As bonfires incinerate enchanted books and special police prowl the city, the time for magic-and those who work it-is running out. Then Louis XVI declares magic a crime and all magicians traitors to France. But as her writings captivate the public, she begins to suspect a dark magic she can’t control lies at the heart of her success. In the pamphlets she prints, she tells the stories of girls living at society’s margins. Not when Camille lives for the rebellion. But as the people of Paris starve and mobs riot, safety may no longer be possible. Gita Trelease's Everything That Burns is the transporting sequel to All That Glitters, hailed by NPR as a “soaring success”!Ĭamille Durbonne gambled everything she had to keep herself and her sister safe.
