Mooncakes

Is it 5 stars because they have like 5 or something cats? What? No! I'm not that superficial (honestly it probably is). But even if there were no black cats I'd still rate this a full 5 stars. Because it was so so fun and adorable. This had me grinning from ear-to-ear and I'd definitely recommend it if you're looking for a wholesome graphic novel.

I loved seeing the forest creatures – I wanted to know more/see more of them. I loved how they were drawn – I mean I loved how the entire book was illustrated, but I think the forest creatures have my heart the most.

I liked how the plot was laid out and how everything happened. It kept me intrigued and I was never bored even though it's a short book. Although, as it's over 200 pages – is that considered big for a graphic novel? The element of mystery was done well and I didn't suss out the plot twist!

Nova and Tam were two absolutely adorable characters and I loved getting to know them. They had such a sweet relationship and made me feel warm all throughout. This is certainly a warm hug in a book – in fact it's like a warm hug for every page in the book. Nova's grandmothers were also sweet and funny and I loved how welcoming and caring they were!
