Mistress Mary so contrary. Very queer and cross.

Magical! I loved how the characters unfolded and the themes were beautiful!

A beautiful story of friendship and character development set in grimmest Yorkshire, the starkest contrast to Colonial British India that France's Hodgson Burnett could think of. Dickon deserved a spin-off!

This book is an easy 4.5 (yet another fuck you to good reads, let me do half stars). The story is sooo whimsical and interesting. The characters are lovable. The story develops in a natural way to keep a childlike air throughout the book while having enough content to fill a whole novel. Great message. I had this book in my basement all the while growing up, I sooo wish I read this around 10-11 years old, but better late than never.
