I loved this book! It was so much fun to read! I loved the kids! They were so sweet and kind even though they had reason to hate everyone. The passion Authur and Mr. Baker showed when it came to the wellbeing of the children were inspiring.

This book was a page-turner, could not put it down once I started reading. The characters get at your heart and never leave. You grow fonder of them as Linus does. It's incredibly saccharine, I loved every bit of it.

I liked the book. Thought it was well done. But definitely wasn’t as good as the hype. But well done characters and a good moral.

Perfect, absolutley perfect
I laughed and cried with and for the characters
It's a sweet and beautiful story about found family and though their world is very different than ours it speaks to so many human and specially queer experiences. 
Can't wait to read more from this author

This book was heart-warming and hopeful and had the most tenderly realized characters. 
Was it a little corny? Yes. Did I still love it? Also yes.

What an absolute joy of a book! This has has completely overtaken every book this year by a million miles! All of the characters were a joy to go on an adventure with. Talia was by far my favourite, her wicked sense of humour and her gnomish ways.
Arthur and Linus were a gorgeous pairing who deserve all the happiness in the world. 
A huge cup of coffee and a warm blanket of a book!
