This was a feel good found family book. I really liked most of the characters, especially the children. They all had different likes and personalities but they are amazing together. The chapters are long. There is only 19 of them plus the epilogue but they are over 10-15 pages long which made this book seem a bit longer than it actually was. I would recommend this book but it does talk about things like discrimination and child abuse so be careful.

This book touched my heart so deeply, it reached inside of me and warmed me to my core. All of the children were so precious, even Lucifer.  What a lovely, feel good story. It made me feel warm and cozy, like sitting next to a nice fire. 

This was my face the entire time reading it: 🥺

I loved this book, would give it a 4.9 if I could. I loved the author's descriptions of setting and characters, both of which I loved. The ending was lovely.

This books is like being wrapped in a warm hug and you'll find, just like our protagonist, you become lovingly attached to everyone you meet along the way.
