First line: "The house on the cliff looks like a ship disappearing into fog." 
 I had no idea what to expecting when I started Jane, Unlimited. What I can tell you is that it's ambitious, it's strange, it's interesting, and it's a little bit bonkers. 
 This definitely won't be for everyone. In fact, I can say for the most part that it wasn't for me. The first two stories were more mystery-based and I was into them, but the final three stories got super weird and I can't say I really enjoyed them. There's one in particular where I'm still not even sure I know what happened. 
 Ambitious is probably the best word to use to describe Jane, Unlimited. Despite not liking it as much as I would have hoped, I have to give Kristin Cashore kudos for coming up with such an original story (stories?). Despite there being five distinct tales, there are bits and pieces that reoccur and aid in creating a larger picture. There are lots of moving parts and I'm amazed at how Cashore was able to do it.
