This was so good! I really loved the light fantasy elements and the way they worked so seamlessly with the relationships and heart of the story. It's a quick read, but definitely a memorable one. I would recommend this to readers who like cozy settings and atmospheres, magical elements, and relationship-focused stories.

Although one very dark thing is a key event in this book, it is overall sweet and heartwarming. Coming of age, sisterly bonds, magical realism. An easy, enjoyable read but probably not memorable long-term.

I really enjoyed this. I didn't really know what to expect because I couldn't remember where I'd got the recommendation from but that was a nice way to go into it. The island setting was so atmospheric and I found the magical elements really interesting. I've since seen some comparisons to Practical Magic which I definitely agree with (although I have only seen the movie).
