I rather enjoyed this story! I thought the characters were well written and I loved the found family (literally).
I found the pacing to be perfect and the magic/fantastical elements to be very entertaining!
I started out listening to the audiobook and then switched to the ebook and as much as I enjoyed the narration, I would recommend reading this as an ebook/physical book as there are illustrations that I think add a lot to the story.
There are areas of the story that I wish we got a little more information on, but that's really my only complaint. I binged this story so fast I almost wish I would have slowed down a bit so I could have spent a little more time in that world!
