5.0

This was absolutely excellent. So much fun,  genuinely funny - the amount of clever jokes/chuckling puns was high and I was smiling the whole time. (GhoulTube...)

Loved the characters - both strong, flawed, insecure, funny, surprising, grew so much, supportive, well-matched... There was so many fantastic bits to be had with Oz's lack of knowledge, there was so much greatness in Mariel and her nature magic, and great side characters (I'll get the spelling wildly wrong so the quirky elder relative A was incredible). I love how the world/setting is so easily infused with magical things and people and even social media (pixies, creatures, magical plants, etc). 

Bonus, I did not see that climactic scene coming - excellent, great mystery, great build up, reveal, solution, etc (the visuals were EPIC and this book needs a mini series/movie. 100% casting Rege Jean Page as Oz....). And the actual ending was thoroughly delightful. 😊❤

10/10, totally enjoyed this. So cute!
