The artwork was really lovely and the plot was compelling. Larson manages to create characters with great depth in an incredibly short period of time.
This had a greater impact on me than I was expecting. It lured me in with a simple story of a girl who's upset with the changes wrought on her brother during his deployment in France. If you think you know where this one is going, you're probably wrong. It was stunning. I'm tempted to give this one 5 stars; I have to think on it.

TW: Violence against old people.
A beautiful creative whimsical story that I could not put it down until Fin! (Okey, I had an issue with p.32).
I liked Vonceil character and the witches, mostly Dee but let's be honest I didn't like her brother with that "No woman of mine..." and for what he did in Paris knowing that his fiance was waiting for him. Also, I wanted to see that Vonceil had a great life before that ending but it's my opinion and my wishes. Anyway, it was really nice and it's true that it has some Ghibli's vibes more like Howl' Moving Castle kind of story.
