Libba Bray has done it again! I was completely floored by Lair of Dreams. Still a historical fiction set in the 1920s in New York City, this second story focuses on a sleeping sickness that is plaguing the city and brings us into the world of Diviners with the power to dream walk. Again we have a beautifully diverse cast of characters, and when I say diverse I mean DIVERSE! The characters boast various races and religions, there are LGBT characters, and this book features a lead with a disability. It is so exciting to me to see such a realistic world that really captures the melting pot that we are as people. In my review of The Diviners, I mentioned how the characters were all starting to be introduced to each other, and in this book we really see how powerful they all are together. Along with the dream world storyline, we're still dealing with the mystery of the man in the stovetop hat and following the journey to learn more about Project Buffalo, a secret government project related to Diviners. 
 This series is so rich with detail and we're slowly learning more and more about each character. They feel like real people because we're really getting to know them - flaws, secrets, and all. 
 Now I just need the next book in this series to come out already!
