This was indeed a very good book, but the reason I rated it 4 stars was because of some points in the story. Some points when it made me so disappointed I didn't want to read anymore. Or points when Serafina was being a little bit un-sensable? But this was a good book. It pulled me in from the very first chapter, it has an immense action for what I thought was a lighter read. And there is light gore, not very much which makes it perfect for the middle grades. There is also loyal friendship, love, hate, rats, and more. Yeah...you'll get what I mean when you read it. Anyway, you should definitely read the book, whoever you are, old, young, middle-aged. Who cares, read it.

Can I just say that was a twist. While reading this book I was entranced in this enriching world that was brought to me through words on a page. The writing style was made so you could play it like a movie in your head and the characters development throughout the book was amazing and I have to pick up the 2nd book asap. Again beautiful 4.5 out of 5

The audiobook was excellent - and the story creepy in a delicious sort of way. Hard to stop listening to when it was time to get out of the car.

It was ok and I found it funny the pieces of the book that the author was trying to hint that serafina was part cat. Like wanting to knock the chess pieces onto the floor

The premise is great, conceptually. However, I picked this up hoping for a strong female protagonist and was woefully disappointed.

A cute middle-grade thriller fantasy novel that I needed to read after a couple of more serious reads. It was everything I wanted with a super cliche happy ending. I really do enjoy Disney published books
