This book was extremely MY SHIT! I love found families, but queer found families? YES PLEASE! I want that shit in my eyeballs ALWAYS.
What a delightful read after all the shit I’ve been feeling recently because of... *gestures at everything*. This book was soul cleansing and heartwarming. An incredibly lovely ending. Reminded me a bit of “In Other Lands” because it also deals with magical children in a world similar to our “real” world.
If you have a younger reader in your life I think they would enjoy this, especially if they’re an HP person.
