The Crowns of Croswald
by D.E. Night
This was a good book. I now this book is leaning more towards younger readers and I feel like I would have enjoyed it more if I was younger. However, I thought the story itself was interesting and easy to follow. I did enjoy where the story led and I think the rest of the series could be interesting.
I will say that there are a few similarities to Harry Potter, but it didn't affect the way I read the book at all. I thought the idea of scrivenists was actually really interesting and I loved reading about it. Honestly, I wished there was more detail about what scrivenists do and the kinds of things Ivy was learning about in school as it was kind of glazed over. However, maybe there's more information in the other books.
I enjoyed seeing Ivy make friends and new relationships. This definitely gave a good insight into who Ivy is as a person and a friend. However, I found that we missed the growth in the relationship with one of the characters and never really got to see how deep their relationship was.
Overall, it was a good book and I would definitely recommend this book to younger readers.
