I chose to reread this book (originally read in 2004) for the 2015 Reading Challenge. I had to choose a book more than 500 pages long, and this fulfilled the requirement. When I first read this book, I was absolutely in love. It is probably still one of my favorite stories.
Now on to the review!
Loved it! I would definitely recommend this story to anyone who enjoy YA novels or fantasy novels. I have a few problems with it, but they aren't that big of a deal. The narration switches sometimes. For the majority of the first half of the book, it is from Meggie's POV. Suddenly it switches to a few other character's POV. It doesn't, however, last long. Although it was a bit confusing at first, Funke makes sure to note when the narration has changed. This is a small quip and I still plan on reading the rest of the series as soon as I can pick it up!
