I really enjoyed this! It’s a sweet feel good story about found family, love, diversity, acceptance, and standing up for your beliefs. I thought they hit the message over the head a bit at points but it’s still an important point told in an approachable way. The characters were so lovable and the sarcasm filled writing kept me laughing. It’s magical but they didn’t spend chapters explaining the world and you figured things out as you went, which made it easy to get into right away. Curious to see what the sequel holds!
