You can see all my reviews here: Books Are The New Black

This was such a quick read because I just couldn’t stop. I honestly wasn’t sure where this would go but I loved the journey.

At first, I wasn’t quite sure that I was going to like the characters because they are not the most likable. I think it’s what I loved the most about this book because it was so fun to see their character development by the end. I loved the fact that he chooses and Orphan. He goes into this place and leaving saddened, which really shines a light on reality. Orphans need love to. It really helps you understand the reason Bethany is the way she is.

There were so many great lessons for children in this book but it was done in such a funny way. It does get a little dark at times but it was done in such a silly way that it is perfectly acceptable for kids. I loved how Bethany just worms her way into Ebenezer’s life. Their back and forth was really funny. One is trying to out-whit the other pretty much the whole book. I mean, isn’t that what parenting is all about anyways? You trying to out-whit your child day to day? My kid is only over 1 but he’s testing my brain daily. haha.

The illustrations were so good too. They came out a little off in the e-book version but what I could put together, I really enjoyed. I’m a sucker for beautiful illustrations and this one did not disappoint.

This is a book that I would recommend!! I really enjoyed my time with it. I will be buying a physical copy when it releases for me (a long time in US) and I’m looking forward to book two!!
