This was cute, if a bit boring at times. I felt it hard to connect emotionally to the story, like I was listening to someone tell me about the events happening rather than feeling the characters experience them but I'll admit that could just be a me thing. 

Loved the world-building and the rep. It really was done well. 

I'd recommend this to my younger siblings and people that really love MG, but maybe not to a kid that's struggling to get into reading.
