England, 1882. In Victorian London, two children with mysterious powers are hunted by a figure of darkness —a man made of smoke.Sixteen-year-old Charlie Ovid, despite a lifetime of brutality, doesn't have a scar on him. His body heals itself, whether he wants it to or not. Marlowe, a foundling from a railway freight car, shines with a strange bluish light. He can melt or mend flesh. When two grizzled detectives are recruited to escort them north to safety, they are forced to confront the nature of difference, and belonging, and the shadowy edges of the monstrous.
What follows is a journey from the gaslit streets of London, to an eerie estate outside Edinburgh, where other children with gifts—the Talents—have been gathered. Here, the world of the dead and the world of the living threaten to collide. And as secrets within the Institute unfurl, Marlowe, Charlie and the rest of the Talents will discover the truth about their abilities, and the nature of the force that is stalking them: that the worst monsters sometimes come bearing the sweetest gifts.
With lush prose, mesmerizing world-building, and a gripping plot, Ordinary Monsters presents a catastrophic vision of the Victorian world—and of the gifted, broken children who must save it.

Defective
Super cute bag, unfortunately it was less than functional.
The main zipper cannot zip up completely, as it has been sewn incorrectly.

My bag strap pulling out.
Color: Camel, Color: Camel
I got this bag as a gift from July and started using it in the middle of September for work. I love it but the left strap is pulling off. I am very disappointed.

Comfy and supportive
Love it! Very snug and supportive. I am 5‘6“ 188 pounds. I am wearing a 34H and it fits perfect. Will definitely be adding more colors to my collection. Hopefully they add the HSIA Delia collection that are similar to these, but have printed options.
