Snap is such a cool kid! I loved the plot and the art, and the emotional conversations in the book were so beautifully written.

I wanted to read this book for a while and usually when that happens, a book is just dissapointing, but this one wasn't. I really loved it and will definitely be rereading it. It is a fast read and it just feels good to read it. Lots of positive LGBTQ+ representation too. 

Reading notes:

Snap thanking the witch is every employees dream.

The way the witch changed her experession when hearing that Snap is named after her mum's favourite flower.

Snap's mum standing up for her in the book store.

The sightings of the one-eyed Tom look like they are kinda in E. Carrol's style, where the background is black and white and the creature is very vibrant. It looks so good. 

Snap and Lulu just being nice to each other and talking about their interests with each other.

Snap's mum being nice to Lulu in just a casual way.

Am lowkey heartbroken because of the reason that Jacks does not want kids.

The love story between Jacks and Jessamine.

Extremely cute. I loved all of the characters. Snapdragon is a great lead because she’s caring and adventurous and so open to everything going on around her. She’s so eager and it’s great.
