I found the story interesting somewhat repetitive of classics but kept me reading. However the first chapter I found very Erie and too much for the

4.0 out of 5 stars Beautiful Words!
Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on September 14, 2021

The Girl Who Drank the Moon is a beautifully written, whimsical fairytale that has a lovely moral interwoven into the magic of the story.

Though the writing is lyrical and wonderful, I thought there were parts of the book with unnecessary plotting that did nothing to move the story forward or shape the characters in any meaningful way. The premises of the story is delightful and satisfying. I recommend this book to readers who believe in fantastical, magical worlds. 4.5 stars.

This fantasy is amazing and full of surprises. The power of family love is a major theme, with family both of blood and choice. Wonderful for adults as well as children.

4.0 out of 5 stars Better than I first thought
Reviewed in Canada 🇨🇦 on April 25, 2019

I didn't like the story at the first glance. Witch and monster are good, humans are bad and ridiculous. I personally think this is pretty much cliche. But as the story unfold, things turned out to be much more complicated than that.
It's an interesting story, slow-paced, but overall a good one. The magic is purely magical, which I love. I reduce one star for the characters. Most of their arcs are fair enough, actually, and almost every named characters are well rounded. But I somehow feel that they could have been better. I can't relate to them. It is, I think, because of the way they are portrayed. Something is missing.
Anyway, I would recommend this book. It's a good read.

So adorable! I bought this for my niece (7). I think it was a bit too old for her, but maybe in a few years. I read it myself and enjoyed the story so so much. Definitely will be a classic!

I just wish a new book arrived without the front cover and first few pages crumpled especially since it was a gift.
