This book was a great witchy book for middle graders. Seven, Thorn, and Valley were great characters to read about. I enjoyed Seven's little brother Beefy a lot cause it reminds me of my own children where my daughter is older then my son. I love the idea of friendship and feeling belonging is a great story point. I also found out that this book is based off an area in New York which is where I live so my daughter will find that neat as well.
