xeni 's review for:
Which Witch?
by Eva Ibbotson
This book did not feel like a children's book at all. I can see why it would be shelved that way, though. There was a bit of a Roald-Dahl-esque feeling about how the world is turned on its head: darkness and being an evil wizard / witch is the thing to strive for. And yet, none of the characters truly want to hurt anyone, so there is no real evil. Darkness is not evil, I suppose is the takeaway?
In any case, I felt the characters were charming, the story was written magically but to the point, and the plot wrapped up far better than I hoped for. I probably would have loved this book a lot more if I was younger.
