i've heard people talk about this book for ages and everything they said about it was really nice and sweet. and i can confirm too, this was super super super sweet <3

let me just start talking about the art because it is incredibly pretty and adorable. the little dragons are super cute, the color palette is gorgeous.
i remember i had also read about the characters being diverse so i really wasn't surprised to see the different skin tones they all have (and even a hijabi as an extra character <3) but what really surprised me was how one of the characters, erik, has a disability. 

and, speaking of that, i love that one of the messages of the book is that even if you lose something, you can still make new memories with people who love and care about you. if you want to, you can always keep certain sides of yourself alive. 

i really wish i could have read this book when i was younger, but right now, even though i like slice-of-life stories, im not a big fan of the "no plot just vibes" type of books
