sage01 's review for:

The Girl Who Drank the Moon by Kelly Barnhill
5.0

4.5 stars.

The title is somewhat of a misnomer, as there's an ensemble cast put to very good use. Accessible enough for 4th-5th graders, compelling enough for adult readers. Also, contains some beautiful poetry in amid the fiction. Also, some very nice trope reversals and lovely default feminism.

(I was afraid all the 5 star reviews meant it was overhyped, but it turned out to be a solidly GOOD book. Recommended.)
