This is the second time I am reading this book - the first was for book club, and now to refresh my memory of it before jumping into the sequel.

I think I loved this book so much more the second time around than the first. When I read it last year, I had only rated it 3 stars, but it is definitely a 4-star book for me now.

I loved the world that Fawcett has created in this novel. I loved the characters - especially Emily. This cosy fantasy world is inhabited by faeries and other odd beings, filled with wit and dry humour. I enjoyed the banter between Emily and Wendell so much more this time.

I'm genuinely looking forward to book 2 now.
