A warning to society to not let a central government rule through lies and fear and ignorance. A critical message delivered in an easy to digest manner that every person should read in their life.
Poor Boxer just wanted to create a better society for his fellow animals and believed that his leadership would never betray him. And poor Old Benjamin who saw through the lies but did not want to abandon his friends and so suffered through the injustice. And Clover who realized when it was too late that she had been fooled the entire time.
This was a reread about 3 or 4 years after my first time reading this book and I still loved it. This book will always be firmly in my heart and will always hold my “witchy academia” interest. The blend on historical academics and magic bring on such a nostalgic feel. I've never once been to Oxford or England but the descriptions in this book make me feel like I'm sitting right there in the Bodliean with Diana.
If Elsa Dutton is your favorite Yellowstone character then this book is for you. This book shows the horrors and the hope in the American West. It also features some very important figures in history during the time that you may not have heard of otherwise. A blend of fiction and reality.
A whimsical book that feels like summer. There were some dark spots in this book but overall I loved it. The characters were so well written and even the side characters were well thought out. The story ended abruptly yet exactly how I thought it would. A very quick read. If you like Practical Magic then you'll like this as well!
