I always find it hard to talk about books I really enjoy, this being one of them.
The book is another amazing diverse read focusing on a Neurodivergent MC who has dyspraxia. I was really excited to read this as I, myself, am dyspraxic. However, I was diagnosed a lot later in life. Ramya has just moved to Edinburgh and when she meets a stranger, a whole other world becomes unveiled!
A beautiful story that yet again gives a voice to those who are often ignored, or told they are wrong. I cried a few times… but this book is more than that, it has Magic! Witches, Sirens, Kelpies, Vampires… oh and greyfriars Bobby. This book also makes me want to go to Scotland even more!
I wish I could talk about this more but a great middle grade book that has so many elements and also is so important in more ways than one. I can’t wait for the sequel next year!
