With every further novel in the series, it makes me even more excited to go back and reread from the beginning. I’ve never been so excited to eventually reread a whole series. Wow, these are SO GOOD I just don’t have the words. This one…. Ugh, this one. It’s heartbreaking.

Lundy has a very serious dad and no friends. As her dad is the principal of the school, it makes some sense. Lundy just wants to escape, to have friends, to live in where things are fair. 

Lundy finds herself in the Goblin Market. In the Goblet Market everything is fair trade. If you do not make a fair trade you slowly turn into a bird. Lundy finally has a friend. Lundy loves it, but misses her family. She goes home where things aren't much better so she goes back to the Goblin Market. She saves her friend, then finds herself drawn back home. Lundy is unable to decide which world draws her in more. Does she want to live her life in the world with her parents and siblings, or does she want to live in the world with her friends?

The Goblin Market was an interesting world. I enjoy the worlds with structure, even if the structure is strange.
