i wish the writing was from the perspective of a different character (i like the main character but would’ve liked to read the story through one of the other characters’ eyes). but this was heartfelt and filled to the brim with childlike wonder.

This story really touched my heart. I grew to love all the characters as I read and I was rooting for them all throughout the book. I enjoyed the twists. I guessed one of them early but it was still a fun reveal. I really recommend this as a sort of sad cozy book.
