It was predictable, but enjoyable all the same. My daughter and I read it together. It showed her a bit of history that she wasn't fully aware of. It was very eye opening for her.
I'm reading The Story of Cirrus Flux. I won it in a raffle but wanted to finish it before giving it to my tween. I'm a bigger fan of historical non-fiction than fiction, and unfortunately, this book reinforces that. I'm hoping my son enjoys it more.
I've wanted to read The Night Gardener since I saw the gorgeous cover. I'm only through the first chapter, but the writing is just as lovely as the exterior.
