4.5 stars
In a world where every book that is published has magic systems, and political powers, and sprawling epic stories, The Last Unicorn rears up and says “What ever happened to a good fairy tale?” I had a sense of whimsy reading this book that I haven’t felt in ages, and it took me back to a time when magic was magical

Simply breathtaking...

This is quite simply one of the most simple, elegant, beautiful, and bittersweet books I've ever read. It's full of rich symbolism, deep truths, and wonderful illustrations. Every word is filled with intention and meaning. It was a true masterpiece.
