The Dragon in the Library

August 2022 Hoopla Bonus Borrows recommendation.

DnF at 70% od the Audiobook.


This book is not what I expected. Based on the title, I expected kids dealing with a dragon unleashed in a library. At the 70% mark the only dragon we've encountered is in a book. I stead it's about an evil man named Salt who is trying to buy the library. Maybe he's a dragon? Idk, but at this point I don't really care.

The book also about a young kid who learns they are a wizard, the youngest in history. Then there are the traditional kid screw ups.

Overall the kids were fun, but some plotlines (like the new book all being checked out, and buying a library) were too far fetched. There was also a lot of explanation about the Wizarding world and its orders. It was a lot of information and rules all at once. And it became like sandpaper on skin whenever a new rule was stated.
