Wishtree by Katherine Applegate

5.0

i've recently felt like i haven't read enough MG in my lifetime, so i ordered this on Prime Day because it was discounted.

this book charmed me from page one, with themes and messages that blew me away. this is one of my favorite passages:

Watching Bongo soar, I considered, not for the first time, my rambling roots. What would it be like to fly? To burrow? To swim? To gallop?
Delightful, no doubt. Sheer joy. And yet I wouldn't trade a single rootlet for any of it.
It is a great gift indeed to love who you are.


chills.
