The movie is one of my go-to comfort watches, and I can’t believe it took me so long to read the book!

I really enjoyed the book. The plot never got too deep, and quite a bit was left unexplained or lacked closure. But I hardly cared, because I was swept along the fantastical journey with Sophie. A fun, nostalgic time with delightful insufferable characters!
