2.0
I read this book first when I was really young and liked it a lot! I loved the romance and magic. However, upon rereading as an adult, the casual racism and body shaming is extremely difficult to ignore.
This book is only not 1 star because it has some good romantic moments and a fast moving plot with a strong sense of adventure.

Graphic: Body horror, Body shaming, Eating disorder, Fatphobia, Racism, Toxic relationship, Medical trauma, and Injury/Injury detail
This book contains statements about body image and weight that would be harmful to a young person. This book contains racist prose, focused on glorifying white people as the highest beauty standard.linnylionheart's review against another edition
