★★★
This book has one of my favourite covers of all time, but unfortunately I didn't love the inside. I mean, it was fine??? Didn't blow me away, but I didn't hate it either! I really enjoyed the main characters growth in learning to love and appreciate the new members of her family though! I just wanted to protect lil Louis at all costs! Be warned though, if you're recommending this to younger readers, it's a bit of a creepy read!
trigger warnings: loss of loved ones (in the past), mild fantasy violence, absent parents.
