Ah, this one was a heart-breaker.
The author does a REALLY good job of keeping you in suspense about what Thing happened to make the Livelys want to leave Juniper. I figured it was something pretty bad, and... Boy, it was. I won't specify for the sake of spoilers, but let's just say I was surprised that such a mature topic made it's way into a middle-grade novel. Normally people shy away from this level of Dark in middle-grade works and I'm impressed the author decided to take it on.
