I went into this book blind- only knowing that I wanted to read it so I could watch the movie with Jonathon Jackson and Alexis Blidel. 

I’m completely surprised with how much I loved this story. I was nervous that I would have a hard time with it since it’s categorized as a middle school book, so I thought that I would find it childish or annoying but that is the opposite of what I thought while reading. 

I kept getting the feelings of eeriness and comfort which were such an odd coupling of feelings. The epilogue was beautiful and melancholic 🐸 🤎
