So sadly I didn’t love this 😞. I wouldn’t say I disliked it thought, I just found it to be ok. I really enjoyed the writing and mainly the setting. Just the whole vibes of the book and the dark atmosphere I really enjoyed the most 🖤. I really just didn’t connect with any of the characters much and the romance was just nothing special to me sadly 😞 & while I found parts of the plot engaging, I also was a little bit bored on and off 😕🖤

I really enjoyed this story, it did take a while for me to get into to start with but once I was a bit more through it, I became very invested and binged through a lot of it. I enjoyed all the characters, thought Kaladin was probably my favourite. I really liked the ending as well and I’m very interested to read the next book in the series soon 📚📚

This was an enjoyable short little story and perfect to read around this time of year, but I do wish it was a little longer and that there was just a bit more to the story cause it was over so quickly. The writing and illustrations were stunning 🤩🎄☃️🧸

So while it was fun to be back in this world/series, I do think this book wasn’t really needed and I would of just preferred to have the next book in the series, but I do love Keefe so it was still a fun read 🧚🏻♀️📚

It was nice to finally read the original wizard of Oz story, but definitely not a favourite children’s classic for me 💚🧙♂️💛
