Virtual Unicorn Experience by Dana Simpson
3.0
slow-paced
Plot or Character Driven: Character
Strong character development: No

VIRTUAL UNICORN EXPERIENCE is the story of Phoebe and her unicorn, Marigold Heavenly Nostrils. The first thing I noticed about this book is that Marigold is very conceited. Perhaps that's a unicorn thing. I'm not sure it's something I'd want my daughter reading. 

Beyond that, this story was good. A bit boring and all over the place but good. I was halfway through the book before there was any mention of a "virtual unicorn experience" so I'm a little confused at the rating. 

I liked the illustration style and the fact that everyone around Phoebe seems to know Marigold exists. That was different. 

***I received a complimentary eARC via NetGalley in exchange for my honest review. All opinions within are entirely my own.
