Siempre digo que el hobby de leer me viene desde pequeña y uno de los sitios donde primero empecé en esta aventura fue en Fairy Oak, con sus personajes tan pintorescos llenos de magia.
Lamentablemente hace años perdí mis copias originales que me habían regalado de pequeña y también la esperanza de volverlos a leer porque estaban todos descatalogados. Por suerte y por fortuna, hace poco han vuelto a reeditarlos y lanzarlos de nuevo al mercado por su decimoquinto aniversario, dándole la oportunidad a una nueva generación de crecer con esta historia y a una no tan nueva de revivir toda la nostalgia de su infancia.
Si soy completamente sincera, muchas de los aspectos de la trama habían caído en el olvido para mí, pero lejos de entristecerme, me ha permitido leer partes de este libro como si fuera la primera vez y estoy muy agradecida por ello.
Fairy Oak me sigue transmitiendo la misma magia y el mismo comfort que cuando tenía 10 años y estoy deseando seguir leyendo el resto de los libros.
Pd: Vainilla Periwinkle tú y yo somos lo mismo

The book I told my parents to throw away because I didn't like it (withouth reading it not even once) and a few years later I fell in love with!
Such a great book!
Such a great book!

This is a children's book and it's written as such, but the magic, comfort and warm feelings remain even when reading it as an adult. It feels like a warm cup of tea on a windy autumn day, or like a hug to my younger self.
Onto rereading the next one then!

This was one of my favorite books when I was a child and I've read the series multiple times.
Now I wanted to refresh my memory and see why I loved it so much.
Honestly? I don't know. It was boring and had zero character development. Scratch that. The characters didn't even have personality.
If it was a random book I just picked up, I would have probably dnf'd it halfway through, and even if I finished it, I would struggle to give it 2 stars. For now, for the sake of my mental and emotional sanity, I can't give this less.
Although, I have to say, my 10-year-old niece read the whole trilogy in 2 days when she spent the weekend with me in the summer and loved it, so I would still recommend it to the target audience, I guess.
Let's hope the other two books are better.
