I absolutely loved this one!

- The message it wanted to convey was strong and carried through the entire book with the MC growing and changing her opinion on it.

- All the characters are just lovable. Chicory is just 🥰

- The world is so interesting and solid. Genuinely wish I could live there too.

- The ending left me wanting for more, but I am definitely satisfied with the ending and resolution. I hope Regan gets a spotlight in other Wayward Children books: tho I understand if she wouldn't as it comes a bit contrary to the message of the book.

This one is for the horse girls - the world is called Hooflands. I really appreciate reading the diverse POVs in this series, the MC in this one is intersex. This one is a stand-alone within the series without overlap of previous book’s characters

This installment in the series was mostly enjoyable and felt very out of place from the rest of the books. I thought Regan was an interesting character and her world was fun if a little underdeveloped. The prose issues I have with previous books in this series were nonexistent in this one, so that was a nice surprise. This was also a much more fun and lighthearted novel which I appreciated after some of the books I've  been reading recently.

This book ultimately felt too underdeveloped for me to have strong feelings. Each important scene was far too short, there was little feeling of atmosphere throughout, the only character that got any real development was Regan. I think the end of the book happened ten pages after the climax. Left feeling very meh, but it was such a fast read I didn't feel like I wasted my time.

Loved this one a lot more than the past few in the series, it was sweet and kind and interesting and the representation it provides to a highly underrepresented group is also great and handled in an age appropriate way for the character at hand.

Regan's story! The Hooflands! Horse girls rejoice! Intersex rep! The story just wasn't as intriguing to me as others in the series.
