i love morrigan crow and her adventures with her found family (my favourite trope!! ever!! in case you didn't know!!). i felt so bad for her in the latter half of the book, i wanted to wrap her in a blanket with an endless cup of hot chocolate, she does not deserve this much stress! she's only thirteen :(
jessica townsend doesn't fail to deliver the very definition of whimsy in her detailed description of nevermoor and the colourful characters and stories that we get to witness. i do think this book did drag a little, with a ending that had me scratching my head like oh, that's it? i'm so excited though for the next book that comes out this year! i need more morrigan and unit 919 and jack and jupiter and hotel deucalion, and i am desperate to find out the 'mystery of morrigan crow'!
