3.5 stars

The prose is beautiful, and the little bits of magical elements blended rather well. The characters had depth but were not explored enough. Maybe the author wanted something sweet and light with a dash of sadness and a bit of conflict. Things don't get intense or heavy, and right now, I'm glad they didn't.
However, I do wish the book delved more into details and added another 50 pages. It's rare for me to want a book with extra pages, but it would have worked for this one if the author powered up emotions. She did well within the restrictions set, but I wanted more.

And a wee bit of control on the adverbs would have been better. Can't help it. I tend to notice them first.
