I really enjoyed this!! I haven’t read a lot of middle grade books in my life (I hated reading when I was in the middle grade age range 🙈) but the few I’ve read this year have been so good and this one was no exception! The world building of the otherwoods was so great without it feeling too overly explained and it was pretty spooky! I really loved River & would love to read even more books set in this world!
