Every Heart a Doorway (Wayward Children, #1) by Seanan McGuire

Every Heart a Doorway (Wayward Children, #1) by Seanan McGuire-175 pages

Eleanor West once went through a door to a fantasy world and came back to the "real world." Now, she runs a school to help other young girls and boys who have had a similar experience. Nancy arrives at the school after having been in a "Land of the Dead" for years (6 months in the "real world"). This has some Chronicles of Narnia vibes, but with some differences. Each student at the school is "different"(for example Nancy is asexual and felt at home in the world through their doorway. None of the students feels at home in the "real world." All are trying to return to the world through their doorway. First, Sumi, Nancy's roommate is found dead with no hands, and then others are found missing various body parts. Who is killing them and why? I liked this one and rate it 4 out of 5 stars.
