I really enjoyed this read! It's so whimsical in both setting and prose whilst also capturing you with the plot and mysteries taking place. Ophelia is a relatable loveable main character who I felt I really understood her by experiencing this world through her eyes. The imagery and imagination used in this book enraptured mine and I wish I could see it in reality. It was a little bit slow to get through hence the 4 stars, but enjoyable nonetheless. Looking forward to seeing Ophelia and Thorns journey continue!
