The Crowns of Croswald by D.E. Night
4.0

I really enjoyed the world that was created in this book with Ivy discovering her magic and learning how to make friends after being bullied for the best part of her early years and being made to work really hard.

In the beginning I wasn’t too sure about it as the story was developing at a pace that I would have liked but it soon started to get me hooked and intrigued. Ivy is a well developed character who I can see only getting better as the stories progress and I’m excited to see how much magic she is eventually going to be able to master.

I would have liked a bit more back story about the Dark Queen as it felt she was introduced towards the end with a bit of a rush but I’m sure this will be evident throughout the next novels that are planned.
