Wendell and Emily make me giggle and kick my feet in the BEST way I meannnn, they’re so cute and fun and I just love every second I get to spend with them.
This was such a fun adventure. I have found myself identifying species of faeries by their more colloquial terms like “trooping” and “brownie” while I’m reading and that just makes for such a unique reading experience when you’re so invested and familiar with a world. That’s an ode to great writing and originality, I think.
I also, dare I say, have found myself grateful for the depth of cultures presented in each book and how fun that element has been to work out in my brain as I gather new characters to learn and watch interact with Dr. Brambebly and Wilde. I just — I LOVVVEEE. I snuggle up with the characters and they warm up the evening with their banter and adventure and witty contributions to the world. ADORE.
