I’m a little confused since I’d seen the movie first… but I think I liked it?
The movie is better!!
Not sure whether to rate this 3 or 4 stars... at times I even felt my attention waning. A quick read, the chapters are long, and the movie is so much different!

Finally read this one! Listened, actually, and I loved it! What a rich story of family, magic, finding your way and the love that sisters have for each other no matter what. If you haven’t read it yet, what are you waiting for?
