adventurous emotional reflective sad tense medium-paced

4.5

This is a great read, but it broke my heart multiple times.  The combination of magical realism with historical fiction was really interesting.  I highly recommend, but especially as this is a middle grade novel - I would check trigger warnings before reading.
