This was such a lovely little book! I had to read it for a uni class but I never felt forced to read. This book has actually helped me with a reading slump I’ve been desperate to get out of.
The writing has aged so well and is so whimsical that it is impossible to not get lost in it.
However There are of course some problematic things within the story that reflect the time period, especially to do with race. So keep that in mind if it upsets you.
