Kassner’s writing takes a dark and suspenseful turn when Irréelle decides to run away from the abusive Miss Vesper. Irréelle lives with the constant reminder that Miss Vesper can unimagine her away at any moment. Irréelle hasn’t been perfectly put together by Miss Vesper, and her creator points out her flaws all the time. The bone dust is used for experiments, including concocting more magical beings from Miss Vesper’s imagination. She works underneath a cemetery collecting bone dust for Miss Vesper, the vile and abusive creator who imagined Irréelle to life. But she wants to be a real girl, and everything that she does in this life is driven by that desire. She can tell that by just looking at herself: crooked limbs, mismatched parts, and white hair. Created by the imagination of Miss Vesper, Irréelle knows that she isn’t exactly real. The Bone Garden by Heather Kassner is a perfect novel for those who love fall, graveyards, and spooky tales.
