Be Charmed by These Bewitching Books from 2025
Kelley asked this question about The Priory of the Orange Tree (The Roots of Chaos, #1):
Is this age appropriate for a 12 year old fantasy reader?

The language isn’t very complicated, and the story isn’t very complicated. I think Effy is really underestimating 12 year olds.
