4/5 stars
This is my 10th book in Rex & Jake's 50-Book Reading Challenge,
which Rex leads 12-10. Full list can be found here.
This was just delightful. It had the whimsy and fantastical wonder of an old children's tale, but the patience and severity in its prose like a contemporary literary novel. I just wish it had dug deeper into some of the side characters. Keeping it light is what it made this what it was, but I found myself wanting more of an observation of the great darkness in the world created. Regardless though, it was an absolute treat.
