Like A Charm by Elle McNicoll

3.0

The book was nice but took too long to end. Personally, the events immediately after the ‘final battle’ felt like the author was trying to meet a certain word limit. Aside from the drawn out ending, I found the book to be quite interesting. I enjoyed the way the human world is separated from the ‘monster’ world and the pathways between them. I also found it cool how the mythical creatures in this book are re-imagined and don’t follow the traditional description. It makes the book more engaging in my opinion, as you get to imagine all the new characteristics when reading.
