The Girl Who Drank the Moon

I bought this book for my 14 yrs old daughter. She loves this book. Book arrived in perfect condition. Good cover page.This a fantastic fantasy book for anyone who likes magic and witches and that type of fiction. Good writing style, nice storyline.

The book arrived in pristine condition . Now , talking about the content of the book , even though it is a Children's book , I really enjoyed reading it , it carries the charm , suspense , victory of good over evil and of course magic . Loved reading it

The narrative is exquisitely crafted, blending a flawless combination of adventure, humor, and love within a captivating plot. There is an enchanting element of magic woven throughout this whimsical and gripping fairy tale, culminating in a highly gratifying conclusion overflowing with love. The novel delves into the theme of constructing one's own family and nurturing them with unwavering affection. It explores the dichotomy between kindness and cruelty, hope and despair, magic and menace, as well as loss and tragedy, all while emphasizing the importance of creating bonds and spreading love among those we hold dear Personally I think this shouldn't be in the middle grade category and even tho the novel is just 388 pages but it feels quite long

It is soo good that my daughter cut her screen time and started reading it ❤️✨

I recieved it in good condition ❤️ Review: I loved this book so much. It's a great fantasy read having a world brimming with captivating characters and an inventive backdrop. I liked the storytelling method of Kelly and was engrossed in the book since the initial chapters. 🪄From the moment Luna was born, her fate seemed sealed as a sacrificial offering to an evil witch. But, as the story unfolds, it takes an unexpected turn. The witch, known as Xan, defies all expectations and becomes Luna's savior and brings her to family consisting of Glerk, the swamp monster, and Fyrian, the small dragon. Throughout the centuries, Xan has rescued countless babies like Luna, nurturing them with goat's milk and the enchanting essence of starlight. This mystical elixir grants these infants extraordinary strength while Xan tirelessly searches for a secure haven for them. However, when it comes to Luna, a remarkable error occurs. Unintentionally, Xan feeds her not just any light, but the radiant power of moonlight. This celestial mishap bestows upon Luna an abundance of magical abilities, setting her apart from the rest.As Luna grows, her magic is unstopable and truths begin to unfold about the place and her people and where she came from. 🪄Grand Elder Gherland, the esteemed leader of the town harbored a hidden secret, finding pleasure in The Day of Sacrifice while keeping the truth concealed from the townspeople. However, his nephew Antain, an aspiring Elder, began to question the entire process as he approached his thirteenth birthday and who by 18 years of age is getting Ill since 5 years on this particular day. It also introduced a madwoman residing at the top of a tower, surrounded by her paper birds. As the story unfolded, I delved into the emotions and experiences of various individuals, including Sister Ignatia, Wyn, Ethyne, and many more and loved it. As I was reading i didn't want to put this book down for even a bit and visualising the world of a fantasy book is a surreal experience. 💕

Received in good condition, but packaging should be improved..

This book is really nice it’s quality was excellent! In this book I really love the fantasy and storyline it’s so different from the other books I have read but as you read further the book really starts to get boring and uninteresting so I rate this book 4 stars

This book is a best book for those who like mystery,magic.this book impossible to put down.get in good quality.fast readers need 7 hrs atleast to read.average 2-3 weeks or 1-2 weeks

I bought this book for my 5-year-old, but ended up getting really engrossed in it. It is a multi-layered story, and at the very surface, it challenges the old notions (that all witches, sorcery and extra-natural abilities are evil and must be destroyed). The characters are simple enough for a child, but the meanings will change for the reader when they get older... there is love, loss, heroism, and upending of the usual myths e.g. monsters are killers. In fact, I think I caught a bit of irony in that the portrayal of the true villain is that of someone who appears to be a member of a religious order. It could easily be said to be a criticism of modern-day religions, especially those that focus on sinfulness and sorrow. It is a thinking book, written for thinkers and would-be thinkers because it challenges the common view of mythological creatures and of institutions that people sometimes revere too much. Pick it up... really worth the read.

Mi hija lee mucho y se ha vuelto un desafío encontrarle libros interesantes y cautivadores para su edad - 10 años. Así que probé con este, basado en todas las reseñas, y me alegra haberlo hecho. ¡Ya va por la mitad y le encanta!

buen libro para los niños

Un bellissimo titolo da prendere alla lettera (ironico il tentativo della traduzione italiana di renderlo più ultraterreno) e poi una storia di perdite e ricongiungimenti, amore filiale e la lotta fra il bene e il male spesso celati sotto false sembianze nel governo della città. "...there surely wasn't a witch. ...The belief in her-made for frightened people" (pagina 12) -è un esempio delle varie occasioni che la scrittrice dà di trovare una chiave di lettura del contemporaneo in questo fantasy per ragazzi. In generale il livello di inglese come seconda lingua è fra B1 e B2 ma col dizionario alla mano: a gnarled tree; a smothered flame; guffaws.

L'histoire est très originale et sympa !
