The Girl Who Drank the Moon by Kelly Barnhill

3.0

This was a book assigned to me in my young adult class. Sadly, I didn’t really like it. This book is geared toward a young audience and I think that was most of the reason why I didn’t like it. I just wasn’t interested and kept falling out of interest. Since it was assigned, we talked about all the literary elements and why it’s important for kids to read and I agree. I think if I read this as a child I would really enjoy it. It has a great message about death, which would help a lot of kids who struggle with death. This is a book that I want to keep and use in my middle school classroom library.
