Tom's Midnight Garden
by Philippa Pearce
In a way, this was a very needed bit of escapism. The descriptions if the garden as well as the friendship between Tom and Hatty is really lovely. I enjoyed reading it and wished to explore the midnight garden with them.
It was somewhat weird to read something that provided so little world building or explaining of the whole issue of the midnight garden. But surprisingly I didn't mind it most of the time. I do wish there was a bit more of an explanation what it all meant instead of just saying it was a joined dream. But then again, not having the certainty what was going on was quite nice, too. I didn't quite kniw where the story was going somewhere in the middle part of the book so 4 stars overall
