Winterling by Sarah Prineas
4.0
I’ve been on a middle grade reading kick recently and when I heard about this book, I knew I just had to read it. An middle grade fantasy novel combined with a gorgeous cover makes for a great read, I’ve discovered!
I was sucked into the world that Sarah Parineas creates from the very beginning and I couldn’t stop reading the book until I got to the end. The plot weaves magic and friendship, courage and belief and so much more together to really deliver a good read. There is a lot going on in the world that the author creates without overbearing descriptions and boring dialogue.
Fer was an absolute perfect protagonist for this book! Not only was she fierce and determined, she was a kid too and often times, she didn’t always know what to do and she got scared too. It made her not only admirable but realistic too. The other characters that were a part of this novel were wonderful too. They had their own minds and personalities and had different ways of helping Fer and contributing to the plot.
Overall, Winterling was a perfect fantasy novel full of adventure and excitement, woven with bits of fantasy and folklore elements. It’s a great way to get kids reading and is a quick, fun read.
