 I really enjoy that it’s written in the form of journal entries. I like that it took what worked from the first book and did a remix of that, plus giving us a bigger view of the world. Loveable characters (though I never did warm up to professor Rose), and all the different fay creatures were so inventive (and very scary). I love how smart, determined and resourceful Emily is. This is the best of cozy fantasy to me - lots of cozy elements but there an actual PLOT with STAKES! I love how all the pieces of this story came together.
