A review by jeremychiasson
The Apothecary by Maile Meloy

3.0

Original, clever, and fun. However it's a very difficult book to recommend to children: it's not quite teen, it's not quite middle grade. The main character is 14, there is definitely the buds of romance, but it is a bit childish and innocent for teen readers as well.

It's almost a children's book for children's librarians.
