I just wanna start off this review by saying - I grew up watching Matilda. There was a period of my life where I watched nothing but this movie for a year straight. I LOVED it. And the book, like always, was so much better. The absolute nostalgia I felt and pure happiness while reading this book was something that will be unmatched for awhile.
I was IMPRESSED reading this movie, and seeing how the movie follows the book almost to a pure t. You don’t see that that often anymore, and I was just joyful.
Now that we got that out of the way-
This book follows Matilda, a super intelligent and smart kiddo. I always thought she was so cool for being independent and taking care of herself, but now I realize it was straight up neglect and that makes my little heart hurt.
I do wanna say, I am incredibly happy that she got the ending she deserved. Most kids, and I mean the majority, don’t get the ending they deserve like Matilda did. This was such a bittersweet book. I would recommend anyone read this book, and even watch the movie. Doesn’t even matter what order, they are both incredibly impressive and enjoyable!
