It won the Newbery Award for 2017.Every year the Protectorate surrenders the youngest child to the Witch in the woods. Every year the Witch, confused by their bizarre custom, collects that child and delivers it to a new family across the forest. The arrangement has worked for five hundred years until one day when the annual sacrifice child shows magical potential and is adopted by the Witch to raise as her own.In addition to the Witch the story follows the moon-child, a madwoman, a tiny enormous dragon, a carpenter, Star Children, a Sorrow Eater, and a swamp monster who composes poetry.

Bizarrchitecture: The interior of the Tower has passages that join at strange angles and ascend or descend counter to expectation; it's so confusing that without a guide any person could be lost for days.

Boarding School: The only education available in the Protectorate is the Tower where the Sisters of the Star learn combat and the sciences. Sisters are expected to leave their families and remain in the Tower for the rest of their lives.

Bedlam House: The Tower imprisons people who exhibit mental illnesses (read: defy the Council) until they can be healed. The book does not mention any form of treatment or anyone being released. This is part of the Sorrow Eater's cultivation of emotion that it uses to recharge its magic.
