I have read some books recently that were the first for authors and I have been so impressed with their writings. I also love your last thought. I like that feeling of wondering if it truly was magical or a person's way of dealing with something. Good review.


Along with Rachel, I like that last thought. The way of dealing with something is the type of magical realism I prefer.

Thanks for the feedback Tessa - If you do like magical realism, and I'd add that it could also tag as cultural-fiction (which I love), then keep it on your maybe-list and maybe look past the YA and call it a nice light summer read! I also recommended it to my YA daughter who I think would love it.

Thanks for the feedback Rachel, I would recommend it for any of the tags of magical realism, YA, cultural fiction, or just a light summer read. And I recommended it to my YA daughter who I think would love it. I hope it does well for the new author.
