Thank you to Netgalley and the publisher for the ARC in exchange for an honest review.
● YA
● Fantasy romance
● Secret garden retelling
This was cute! Quill and Liam are adorable as they get to know each other. I thoroughly enjoyed the magic aspects and truly didn't see the twist coming.
Quill is the only male dryad to ever be born. With his bright green hair, he is definitely a little different. His mother keeps him inside at all times and all Quill wants is to be normal and go to school. Then Liam moved next door, a human. The two quickly become close and Quill trusts him with his family secret. But will Liam keep the secret?
I loved that there was a little mystery going on along with the boys' growing friendship.
It does read like a debut novel, but for its target audience I think it's terrific.
