so-so

The reader is dropped in to a new land with magical creatures. Some are explained but many are not described at all. The tale drug on a bit and by the time it got to the best bits, I was ready to be done.

Thank you @jitteryjane724 for my lovely #JolabokaflodSwap package! I am excited to start this beautiful book tonight (I was hoping it would be the one I received as I love something fun to read on Christmas Eve.) The chocolate looks delicious as well—I love Andes & I‘m excited to try the cranberry dark chocolate bar too. Happy Jólabókaflód!

Thank you @MaleficentBookDragon for hosting this fun swap each year! ???

TheBookHippie Happy Chocolate Book day! I hope you‘re feeling better! ♥️📚🍫 4mo

DebinHawaii @TheBookHippie Thanks! Not awful but not the best. I probably sound worse than I am! 😉 4mo

TheBookHippie @DebinHawaii Hopefully it passes quickly and you can get lots of rest!!! 4mo

MaleficentBookDragon Happy Jólabókaflóð! Hope you are feeling 100% soon. 4mo

so-so

For children‘s book of the year (Barnes and noble), I expected more. It just fell flat for me. The themes of the story (power, greed, love) borderline older understanding. Surprised by the amount of death in this book. Though I guess that‘s part of the overall theme; that even through all these hardships and evil, life is still worth living for in joy. That was nice. The fantastical creatures came by overwhelmingly. Story felt over stimulating.

⭐️⭐️⭐️

Between the premise of “Impossible Creatures” and the amount of hype it‘s gotten, I expected to love this book. Having finished it, I feel a bit disappointed in what it could have been. The book is so plot-driven that the characters seem superficial and there‘s not much depth to them. Also, I‘m 100% still bitter about the unnecessary character death halfway through the book and I‘m not sure I can forgive Rundell for that one.

bookishbitch Thanks for saving me a purchase! 5mo

A retelling of the East of the Sun and West of the Moon fairy tale. Charming, enchanting, and filled with adventures. Has a mixed vibe of Beauty and the Beast and Narnia.
