![]() I loved seeing him grow from the experience, & learn to love who he is. The stories he read to the witch that he wrote were all so good too!! Some were quite creepy/scary! I loved the whole story, details, & then the back story as well of the apartment, & the witch. The very fact that he worried so deeply about being a bad person b/c of the stories he wrote, to me proved how completely opposite of a bad person he was. ![]() I loved this book! Now I see what everyone has been talking about w/this author-brilliant!! This gave me all the Grimm fairytale vibes, & modern day Hansel & Gretel vibes. Regardless, how old you are there’s definitely a big chance that you’ll enjoy this! There was a modern touch to the story, and I feel like children would really love it. The story was creative and very original. I felt exceptionally proud to have understood what Sito and Kusa mihshi were before she got the chance to explain them! Of course I loved Lenore (always consider the animals as my favorite characters) I even liked Natacha! (Just a little bit) The story was really fantastically written. Loved Alex’s character and loved that there was a middle eastern touch with the appearance of Yasmin. You can tell just by reading this book that he has some pretty good ideas for a kid his age. Alex has a vast imagination and a love for everything horror. I didn’t expect the book to be scary since it was written for a young audience, but even though, the stories that Alex narrated did get the creepy factor across. ![]() The book might have been written for a middle grade audience, but I absolutely loved it! Witches, magic and scary stories all packed into one little book. The moment I read the synopsis on Goodreads I knew it was the kind of book for me. ![]() “After his family had finally fallen asleep, Alex slung the bagpack over his shoulder and snuck out of the apartment.” Thank you Edelweiss and Katherine Tegen books for sending me a review copy of this book in exchange for an honest review. ![]()
