i loved it!
Jonathan Auxier did an amazing job telling the story of Molly and Kip. I loved getting both of their perspectives throughout the story as well as getting a nice scare. The book was amazingly creepy and gave me goosebumps!
The character development for all the characters was amazing and I love how Jonathan showed that throughout the whole novel.
The Night Gardener felt like an extended Grimms story, and that's just about the highest compliment I could give a book like this. It has an excellent creepy atmosphere combined with quality writing and a decent amount of heart, all coming together to make a very enjoyable dark fable.
