Muddled Insanity | 2 comments First of all, I distinctly remember reading the book around 2012. The book was based in the far future, in a sort of dystopia. The book was about a bald girl who was raised by scientists who lived in the head of a fallen statue trying to find out where she came from and who her parents were. It was also very steampunks, and near the end of the book, she, her friend, and her friend's dying father fled from a burning city.

One of the main plot points I remember is the main character and her friend stumbling across a ruined manor in a bog where the main character discovers she is part of a race of people with patterned spots on their bodies.

Thank you in advance,

From Booklist review: Set some centuries before the Hungry City Chronicles, yet still well into the future, this prequel series opener stars young Fever Crumb, reared by the Order of Engineers in the massive head of an unfinished statue, to operate with a slavish devotion to logic.

If not, do you remember the cover?
Where does the story take place: USA, London, fictitious city, etc?


Muddled Insanity | 2 comments Yeah, I think that this is it. Thank you so much!
