While I liked the world in this, the story didn't do much for me. Probably because we already know how this story ends. I kept waiting for the axe to drop. Onto the next one!

Definitely the best of the Wayward Children novellas so far. 3.75 stars

Great series

And now I need to re-read the other books - hardly a bad thing though! Hooray for Seanan McGuire and her writing speed!

 This book made me so fucking sad. I love the fair value and the market. And I knew how it would end. Yet it broke my heart all the same. 

But yet again I loved the writing style, I'm so sad these books are so short

I think this was my favourite of the series so far. ‘the market' spoke to me, I guess.

Another beautiful book from Seanan McGuire, this time a prequel.

While I wouldn't say this was quite up to the standards of the previous entries in the series, that's like saying lava isn't quite as hot as the sun, they're both pretty darn hot.

I await the next book with bated breath.

Poor Lundy! I really appreciated seeing her backstory. Now I want to go back and reread book 1 because I know her better now. This series is so good!!

Loved this book like all her others, but if she could stop writing such convincing heartache i'd appreciate it. I liked learning about the Goblin Market

A wonderful book, like all the previous ones in this series. Short and sweet, but also just a little sad.

This is (by far!) the best book of the series so far.

Very interesting even until the end. Choices made.

I don't like Lundy :(

SPOILER

There was so much emphasis on the true names, but I guess that was just a red herring.

I really liked this one. I loved Lundy and Moon. This was much better than the last one in my opinion.
