Bookroo's summary

Copenhagen arrived at the library one day with little memory of who she is, and she has been stuck there ever since, helping the wise mechanical creatures who care for it. But the longer she stays, the more she forgets, and the library itself is losing the magic that holds its memories. To save it, Copenhagen must journey deeper into the library than ever before, even if what she finds shatters everything she thought she knew.
