Really really sweet! I had to read this right after another book that I didn't like, both of them for a class about young adult fiction (though I would call both books middle grade). I thought part of the reason I didn't like the other one was that I am too old for it, but I am definitely too old for this one and I thought it was great.

I had some issues with the writing, but none to major. The PoV bouncing between Railey and Atti within the same page was a bit confusing sometimes, but again: Not too much of a bother.

I paired this with the Soundtrack to "The Boy and The Heron" and it was a wonderful match!
