You ever read a book in which you acknowledge that it has flaws, but completely forgive them because it feels like it was written just for you?
For fans of Howl’s Moving Castle, with a Howl-esque MC as a found father and a lovely found family.
I absolutely fell in love with the depth of the characters, the magical setting of Hy-Brasil, and I deeply empathized with Biddy’s complicated love and longing for magic.
