My daughter’s favorite series of all time, I was beyond nervous to read it, hate it, and crush her. But I loved it!  I would call it an advanced middle grade or a youngish young adult writing style and that made for a quick read. And I’m a slooooooow reader! 🤣 Characters were lovable and I loved watching them change and grow. There was a lovely balance between discovery, adventure, and mystery. I want to visit all the elf lands because they have to be amazing!  All in all, I’m so happy to be able to share my daughter’s love for this book with her and can’t wait to steal book 2 from her soon!
