thehaileybirdie 's review for:
The Boy, the Mole, the Fox and the Horse
by Charlie Mackesy
This book reads like a Pinterest search for “inspiring quotes”. This is basically the “live, laugh, love” of books and I was really underwhelmed. I’m very happy it’s touched so many people and there are so many positive responses to this book but I’m personally not impressed. The messages are great but none of them go deep enough for me to feel like I’ve learned anything new in this world that is now constantly pushing positivity and mental health awareness. I see phrases like this all the time in my feed personally so they have lost their impact when I see them now it’s honestly just cliche and sounds like bad celebrity poetry mixed with Winnie the Pooh.
The one star is for the beautiful illustrations.
