The Mystwick School of Musicraft by Jessica Khoury
5.0
I read a lot of middle grade books because I enjoy them and because I’m a school librarian. While I generally enjoy them, it is rare that I find one that I truly love. However, The Mystwick School of Musicraft was absolutely wonderful.
I loved the magic system. It was so unique and well thought through and interesting. There were perfect bits of mystery woven through the story that kept me flipping but the storytelling itself was compelling enough on its own. The characters were well placed and interacted in a believable and lovable way. I even loved the chapter titles. If my husband was near, I read him every chapter title I flipped to because they put a smile on my face or made me laugh every time (plus he was a music major for a while and could appreciate them even more than I did at times).
Literally the only thing I didn’t like about this book was that it ended. So if I can get a sequel, then that problem will be solved! This is also my first experience with this author and I hope that her other works will also blow me away because I will be picking them up soon.
