Somewhere Beyond the Sea by TJ Klune

emotional funny tense medium-paced
  • Plot- or character-driven? A mix
  • Strong character development? Yes
  • Loveable characters? Yes
  • Diverse cast of characters? Yes
  • Flaws of characters a main focus? It's complicated

4.25

This was both stinking cute and also so infuriating. I loved the main characters, especially the kids and it was made more enjoyable because the kids each had distinct voices (applause for the voice actor). It was infuriating in that campaign against magical children could be an analogy for literally SO many marginalised groups in the real world 😠😔 I'm excited to see how the author continues the world
especially with Zoe making the town and island one area again and enforcing the old treaty
 

I also laughed at the whole anti-J.K. Rowling part at the end, hell yeah!
